everythinghalfdimes.com is a great website for the Capped Bust type. I need to pick up a reference book for the Seated type half dimes. I believe...
You could say it's a filler, but getting a problem free 13-D cent to fill a hole costs what, a few bucks? Cool find, but it has very little if...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] A couple years ago I asked the bank if they had any customer wrapped rolls of coins. They only had two CW rolls of nickels....
Correct on the half dimes. On the dimes, you want to look for the 1841-O closed bud. Also, if you have any 1839-O half dimes, check for the Huge...
The second one is denticle position -3C, so 110 and its later die state 110a are the only possible varieties. I don't see the die crack from the U...
That would be the 1861. There's a repunched date for that one as well. Check the base of the last 1. If there's a punch fragment sticking out of...

I see some die cracking action on that 1875!
I’m jealous! Looks like an UNC. Unfortunately the 1839 quarter wasn’t as great as the pics. There’s a big stain on the obverse which wasn’t...
I don't like the mintmark position and the coin seems to have casting bubbles. I'm going fake.
I use fabric lined envelopes I found at a show. None of the shops near me have Saflips so I'll have to pick some up online. Not a fan of 2x2s...
Incredible coin! PCGS estimates that only 67 exist. Unfortunately cleaned, and I'm thinking AU details. Still a five-figure coin and absolutely...
Whoa, an 1896 Horned 9! Was that an Ebay pick, by any chance?
What I said in this thread is simply my opinion. I understand the amount of time I have spent in coins is not very long compared to most of the...
You did okay for $35. Generally, you want to save up a little more money and buy a problem free example. When it comes time to sell, a problem...
If you ever acquire any 1855 to 1873 S mint quarters with problems, regardless of grade, I'll gladly take them off your hands for 5x melt. :p In...
