Your right I could be right, but it’s so easy to make a fake. I recommend that no one EVER buys an off metal or missing clad layer coin unseen,...
When I try to electroplate with a zinc penny it looked like that after 5min.
Just think about it. I gave all the pennys I zinc plated to some of the guys here at work. I should have been selling them on ebay. I’d be...
Like the others posted it’s the box and the air that turned your pirate's treasure. ARRRrrrr!! …but not being one to pass up a chance to show...
I like my Airtite’s but if you want to take the coin out it’s a real pain. I’ve put most of small coins in airtite’s. They stack nicely in my...
Like the westward nickels, it’s a nice design. I like the new “forward-looking Jefferson” but the large right field makes the coin look a little...
Sounds like your 1955/5 is a double from die polishing or some other machine doubling. I don’t think they have much value Maybe 0.50c-$1 over the...
ROFL….. Acetone is your best answer. I got a set of 60 world coins from my brother a while back. They where all taped in to a piece of...

Depends on your dealer. There are 2 where I live. One will trade. I can get a pretty good deal if I have something he’s looking for. The other...
I’d say it probably is but can’t tell for sure. The pic is too grainy. See how the field is brighter that the areas around the details? That’s the...
ROFL... The pieces of gravel will do terrible damage to any coin!!!!!!!! Even if you use a soft medium like cornhusks it will still looked...
Buy a “Red Book” from Wal-Mart or a local bookstore. It will cover 99% of US coins and give basic info on grading and value. The paper money, you...
I search for errors and varieties but all I’ve found is a stack of worthless die cracks and 2 silver dimes. In the end you’re probably better off...
I just started in the world scene and I’m all about “The Pretty”. I’ve found world coins to be way different than US. The two local dealers will...
