Thanks. I still don’t have weight and dimensions, but I’ll tag robinjojo over in my thread on NF.
It really does! He’s not making that up. I’ve seen pics of a gold dollar his dog chewed up! :nailbiting:
This just in, over on CU. [ATTACH] Philip IV through Ferdinand VI at least gives us a date range of 1605 through 1759, which syncs up with the...
If I counted correctly, that’s 14 coins in 11 days. Quite the shopping spree, by my usual standards.
I’d love to own an original J-1526, or any Judd-listed pattern piece, for that matter! Nice to see the design from one produced in a piece that...
I used to have a 1783 8-reales piece in an old small ANACS slab (with the pedigree on the label). Though corroded a little, it wasn’t too bad, as...
I’ve thought we need a shipwreck coin in the giveaway mix, just for fun. Saw some El Cazador Spanish silver, but like so many pieces from that...

I would suggest putting the slabbed coins in slab-sized zip-lock poly bags and affixing the sticker to the outside of the bag, rather than...
Yep. Major lamination. Common on War nickels. I guess they had lots of issues with the wartime-alloy planchets, as @Heavymetal mentioned.
Wow, that's awesome for a circulation find! I'm glad you saved it before it got scuffed up and impaired. Put that puppy in a flip!
*eye roll* :rolleyes:
Wow, good luck! I dunno if any Lincoln cent would be a "holy grail" for me, but I can see why you're excited. A circulation find, you say?...
RIP to @Terence Cheesman. I remember seeing him around the forums, though I never had any private dealings with him.
