Thanks! I guess this tells you how often I visit Variety Vista.:rolleyes::rolleyes:
Spell Check won't correct the spelling if it is really a word. For example, "I saw her standing their." Spell Check can't grasp the meaning how...
I don't think this question has ever been raised here. For the war nickels, was the mintmark punched into the working die by hand or was it...
This is a new one on me! What is molted toning? [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
While you're at it, how about working on your photographic ability.
If it had been caused by a strikethrough, there would not be any metal raised along the edge of the mark. The die, itself, would have prevented this.
I think I see coin metal pushed up at the bottom of the mark which would rule out a strikethrough.
A couple of years ago, I saw some for sale on Fred Weinberg's site.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe this set only lasted 2005-2008. It was very short-lived because it was overpriced at $135.00 when...
Best wishes @curtislclay on your 76th special day!
I had a Washington missing partial edge lettering that I got from the Mint back in 2007. It was graded and attributed by NGC. I can't remember the...
It is my guess that the "cap vee" clash, in and of itself, does not warrant the assignment of a VAM. I'm sure that John will be able to answer...
What you may not realize is that it costs the banks money to order the boxes of rolls. It wasn't so bad 15+ years ago, but with the price of...
Maybe @Conder101 can answer that for you.
It couldn't be due to grease because the center is formed by a metal post on the die. I'm assuming that whenever a post breaks off, it doesn't...
This is strange. To my knowledge, the 2003S MO SQ was produced as a proof only coin. I would think that the quality control at the Mint would have...
Nope! The same would be true for a grease & debris-filled die. Take a look at my Kennedy missing the clad layer. It's graded MS64. Be sure to look...
Ahhh, let's just drop it. I don't have the tools to create the drawings any more. My AutoCADD is no longer on my computer. Still friends?
No! I can tell that you don't know what the hell you are talking about.
Thanks!
