I got five on it. ;) (I wonder if anyone will get that joke).
If anything, the ultra modern coins are the ones that may get a boost from a run-of-the mill clash mark. With older coins the standards were much...
I agree with you on that, but this one can't be a 20 cent piece as the design would be different like the OP mentioned. Probably a dime.
I can't seem to figure out if it's on purpose or if they just don't know their stuff. I've purchased a couple lots from them in the past. After...
If it's anything like the bulk lots this seller sells under ebay id Anthonysrarecoins then there will be a healthy portion of counterfeits as...
The best reference materials are priceless. Also, this forum is the best reference I've ever had.
Toning aside I think ICG actually did alright on this one. The fields and raised features are significantly unmarred. A lot of the unreputable...

This is getting outright silly. He posts a coin and swears it's an error, everyone else thinks otherwise... let's agree to disagree and be done...
Die wear.
It's not a 1/8 thaler, it's an 18 groscher of Brandenburg (1/4 thaler).
Only if a coin was squeezed completely under enough pressure would it expand at the edges. A coin impressed with just a portion of another coin...
Kitco is slightly cheaper than Apmex....
The die clash theory is impossible. Evidence of die clashes exists when an incuse area on one half of a die hits a flat area on the other half...
Yea I noticed it as well, it's especially annoying when changing specific categories between listings. eBay has made a few annoying changes...
