What did you list as the values on the submission form?
One of the easiest diagnostics to quickly rule SMS out is the rims. SMS Cents will have sharp, almost proof-like rims.
Doug, It took me a while to get oriented on this one, but those areas he's pointing to are raised(I believe) on the surface of the coin. I was...
What you are seeing appear to be die gouges and not hub doubling. To answer your question about attributions, usually it's a signed letter that...
I almost went 65 on this one. That's one nice 22-D.
I could have sworn I read Cent somewhere in there, but maybe that's just me being incredulous that people actually collect others. :devil:
Depends on the grade. Are we talking Wheat or Memorial reverse? Dated off-center strikes are actually worth more than dateless ones. People...
Unfortunately, about the only thing you'll find values for are the major doubled dies. Coppercoins is the exception to that, but they only list...

As for the three-legged Buffalo, people find it interesting. A lot of people will argue that it's simply the product of normal US Mint...
Assuming that there weren't any design changes(I'm not familiar with Quarters) then it would be over-polished dies. These are shallow areas of...
It's a minor error. They'll sometimes sell on Ebay for a buck or two.
Technically, a filled die is basically a struck through where grease or gunk fills the die and causes the device(s) to be weak or missing on the...
Nice collection!
This is a nice one. I'd say MS64, but the way the TPGs grade errors they'd probably stick a 70 on it. :D
Until 1990, the mint marks were punched into the dies by hand. Sometimes they bounced or sometimes the mint worker repositioned the mark. Thus...
Those scuffs are common for the newer cents. It seems to be the worst when they come from the plastic shrink-wrapped rolls.
Separate names with a comma.
