Wow. Nice find. There also appears to be a die-clash on the reverse. Starting below the base of the "C" in Cent and working upwards you can see...
I'm in. Just PM'ed you. Thanks for the contest!
If the cops knew where the stolen items were pawned, wouldn't there be some action on their part in trying to recover the items from the shop?
Michelle, I liked your old camera better too! Have you tried opening an account(free) at Photobucket? Their images size nicely when linked in...
Jim, That's just it. My reverse matches perfectly to the MDS markers, but the obverse doesn't. However, the mint mark appears correct. My...
Tiege, I don't see anything unusual about this coin. What specifically is it about the coin that you feel might be an error? I could just be...
Damage. Even if it were a stray Mintmark, there would not be an indention inside the D.
I would say absolutely. Even if you only get a details grade, at least you have hard proof that it's genuine. There is no way I would try to...

I know from recent experience that sometimes those lines can be near impossible to see depending on wear and other factors(and I was using a 30x...
So would that produce a hybrid? :D Following along similar lines, are mated dies always polished at the same time? What brought these questions...
Has he had the authenticity verified? There are some areas on the reverse that look funny to me.
Thanks for that answer. Makes sense. I'm referring to one a little more modern though. Lincoln Memorial Cents.
You would think that they would age at the same rate. I suppose being seperate pieces that one could take some damage though without the other...
Trust me, I put a lot of time into my Ebay listings, but if we take it personally each time someone insults our auction site we'll end up going...
Those photos aren't sizing large enough for me to see it clearly.
Do die pairs always mate for life? I'm wondering, because in finding some varieties tonight I noticed that sometimes when the reverse or obverse...
These are very common. The mint had a tough time, especially on those early zinc dates with the copper plating. What you are seeing are...
Separate names with a comma.
