As youtube numismatists frequently prove.
If you are saying a circulated coin can't show edge finning that isn't correct. However the top edge of the fin will pretty much be the first...
Trying to judge "thickness" of a struck coin by looking at the edge is pretty meaningless.
No, you are not off base.
I'd have probably bought the clad proof sets as well at that price. Who knows if they were willing to take less for the silver sets might have...
.999 fine Yes, weight is 6 grams. or roughly the same as a US silver quarter. .1929 oz of silver. US quarter has .1808 oz.
I think that is why he put oldie in quotes. (Of course the B-52's formed over 40 years ago and Love Shack is almost thirty years old, so for some...
Too late, the OP posted here four years ago. And on the first page only one person belittled him, and he apologized a few posts later agreeing...
I believe he is saying you are lucky if the SGS slabbed coin is even and Unc. (Although from the images of it I would say it probably is.)
As I said that was in response to the OP's original posters comment that he had 20 uncirculated pieces. If they are uncirculated then they "could...
It's still going on because if you read back through the thread you will find that a half dozen or so different people have come into the thread...

It is out of tolerance (Fred was mistaken earlier, he was probably thinking about the weight of a clad dime in which case it would have been...
I was curious because I would think electroplating the strip would be difficult if it was in long coils. Plating strips would be easier. I also...
I believe I can see the seam on the edge of the coin but it is hard to tell on the images. The first image of the edge is out of focus and the...
The PCGS guarantee does give them an "out" to avoid paying compensation for the error by calling it a "mechanical error", but I suspect there is...
That would make it pretty close to 640 blanks per 8 feet. Now the question is were the done in sheets or in coils of strip like today? And if...
Exact same coins, different label. Are you collecting coins? Or labels? (Of course I don't consider either of them coins because they were not...
Total loss, no but I do often require further clarification to be sure they aren't talking about a coin from one of the other dozen or so...
The 1981 SBA's were mint set only. There were also some three coin Souvenir sets. Look at the mintages. The Philadelphia was 3 million and the...
