Stan, I can see the die cracks, but I'm not seeing the doubled-die.
I would say leave the neg then.
Jello- To me it looks like either a D/D rotated or a D/D South. From the photo it almost looks like an extra lower line to the south of the primary.
Maybe George Carlin should have had a list of 7 coins you can't collect in public.
Thanks for that info. I had no idea rolls went back that far. Do you know if the standard(at least for the cent) has always been the .50 cent...
Stan, My oldest rolls go back to probably the late '50's. At least that's what the Ebay sellers told me! :D These are .25 cent rolls. I'll try...
Let me ask one further question; Did you try to communicate with him directly through Ebay's contact form, or did you send him an email to his...
Stan, Unless the reverse is also off-center then this is caused by a misaligned die as opposed to an off-center strike. Misaligned dies are very...
Did the seller communicate? Also, did he give the refund or did you HAVE to go through Ebay in order to get a refund?
I've been reading The Complete Guide to Lincoln Cents by David Lange, and noticed that he speculates as to whether original rolls may still be...
Prospector, Not really. What I've found though is that there are collectors of just about anything out there, so you might be more likely to sell...
Will you be updating in real time, or Coin Talk time? :goofer:
Though I'm not a quarter guy, I can tell you that with Lincolns minor clashes like this are common and do not command a premium.
Good point about that 5X for grading...30X gets you much too close and personal for that.
As far as magnifiers go, I would suggest a 30X loupe if you are searching for varieties. You can pick these up for relatively cheap. Just make...
In that case, unless they're guaranteeing me MS70 coins, there's no way I'm paying that price for $1 worth of what will be an issue that probably...
I've already started getting them in circulation. I'm going to try and see if I can snag a box from my bank.
Same here. Price has to be good regardless of what kind of fancy rolls they come in.
I agree. Looks like it took a hit from something.
It would indeed. For misaligned dies that command a premium, look for those that are so far misaligned that they cut off part of the devices.
Separate names with a comma.
