I know you are joking, but I am a nuke-ular physicist myself. My nuke-ular physics professor pronounced it as "nuke-ular," and many of the people...
All I see is a die chip. I think you are imagining the "piece of the die"
I don't see whatever it is you are talking about.
I'll say the same thing I pretty much always say: if you are interested in errors, you should buy a book on the subject and read it. However, in...
I am fully aware of what this error is. The link is good - but I would think the purpose of this forum is to share knowledge and help others...
When you put out 110 different quarters and 50 different dollars in the space of 20 years, and only have half a dozen "artists" doing the work,...
@ksparrow , that is an absolutely PERFECT 1795. Fantastic color, smooth surfaces, great amount of detail.... that thing is stunning.
I posted the most expensive coin I bought earlier, here is the only other coin that I've spent $5k+ on. Graded NGC MS-67 * PL.... [IMG] [IMG]
I did ask my mom to get me the US mint sets. She liked feeling like she contributed to my collection. Each year, she would give me that year's set...
Oops. You still got a 66, which is a decent grade...
I'll call it 64. The reverse looks nice, there are just too many hits on the face for me to go higher. Sometimes, I'll take a picture that I...
Nice pictures. I'm not a fan of the reed marks on the face and neck, but the reverse is nice. Why are you curious about the L?
Woof. Shysters will come with all sorts of clever names to dupe foolish people into buying an ugly coin. And that is an ugly coin.
Whenever you see a fake NGC or PCGS slab, report it directly to the company as well. NGC and PCGS both actively track, pursue, and combat...
While the coin is cool, the forum would get a lot more benefit if you described the error, what caused it, how to identify it, and told us about...
Its exactly what it sounds like. A coin is struck, and rather than being ejected from the coining chamber, it flips over and is struck a second...
I think the OP is using "recycled coin" to mean a coin that was struck over another coin. These are common in early US and colonial coinage. I'm...
In the past couple of years, my buying has slowed down considerably. I used to buy a few coins a month, for relatively small amounts. Now, I buy...
I would argue that the vast majority of coins sold are under a couple hundred bucks. There are some deep-pocketed collectors that buy more...
1.) Buy a book about errors. 2.) Read it. 3.) Read it again. 4.) Post when you are done.
