So you found some circulated Lincoln Memorial cents while searching rolls..... I'm not sure why you're particularly pleased with these? Could...
What you see in that thread are people unfamiliar with the series. It's very tricky for world coins, where there are number of factors affecting...
Gotcha. Calling an AU-58+ "unique" because of the "plus" is buying into the marketing gimmick. There's nothing unique about it. NGC might be...
I usually don't comment much before the grade is posted, but I have to here. "Bag Marks" are indistinguishable from "contact marks". You'll here...
Any time you post anything on the internet, anyone can see it. They can copy it and use it without your permission. That's life. I've seen...
Why is the second one more "unique"? You say the first one is semi-PL... that seems like a huge plus to me. The 1801 is a nicer coin, and seems...
They are circulated modern cents. They are worth 1 cent each. Getting them graded would absolutely be a waste, but the lighter load in your...
I'd say the odds of it being fake are very high. But, I can't see the coin so I can't be 100% sure.

Cool clash! Point of technicality - those aren't cuds, but they are die breaks. There appears to be 4 of them: 12 o'clock, 3, 6, and 9. I...
As some of you may know, my grandpa is the person who got me started coin collecting. A few years ago, he passed away. He had sold most of his...
Haha, that changes things a bit!
The error is it's a blank planchet. It should not have gotten out without being struck.
How old is your kid? If I were giving coins to a kid, I'd probably start with circulated raw coins - something he can hold and touch. Kids don't...
Not sure, but with a little pareidoila, it looks like a reindeer.
I keep star notes when I get them. Modern circulated notes are not rare by any means, and don't really have any value. But I keep them anyways....
Yes, it is a thing. And no, we don't need it. That's why NGC discontinued the "W" designation many years ago.
Do you have a private office with a locked door? Or does anyone else have access to your office? If anyone else has access, I'd avoid putting...
