Thanks guys, for making my first post on these boards a Thread of the Week! I'm honored.
I want to keep both, of course, but budgetary constraints will not allow it at this time, I don't think. That and there's a sweet 1834 I've got my...
I've got 2 1830 Capped Bust Halves, and I'm trying to decide if I want to keep both of them, or if I get rid of one which one to keep. Both are...
Great description, treashunt. Early half dollar collectors like to collect by die pairing, which were all catalogued by Al Overton. There are...
The description from my NGC Registry set: One of the better struck Franklins of the entire series, the 1952D is the second in the series from 1951...
Oh, its more than 99% chance. Its more like 100% chance.
Here is my off center, a post-1982 Lincoln. [IMG] [IMG]
I'm not eligible, according to the rules, I joined only a couple days ago. But I can still share a picture in honor of 3k posts! Orchids at one...
I don't like that gold piece at all, so I wouldn't recommend a bid on it. The half dollar appears properly graded, and as Mark says the price...
Appears to be VF, cleaned. The obverse appears to have some sort of environmental damage, although it could be heavy dip residue that wasn't...
That's nice. I like the luster. I'll grade 64.
I love overdates. Varieties on gold are cool, and uncommon from what I understand. The only ooverdate I currently own is a 29/27 Capped Bust Half.
Thanks guys! Ripley, I haven't started the French Indo-Chine coinage yet. I only have one piece, a cleaned and retoned (rainbow!) 50 centimes....
That's awesome. I want to buy a gram of gold out of a vending machine just to say that I did, not because I care anything about gold.
Wood grain is cool, in my opinion. As others have stated, it is due to improper mixing in the alloy. I know that for some examples, it will...
Especially love the 57 there, penny lady. I don't collect copper, but I do love toners. I stick with my silver toners though, because I...
That does not look like any error I am familiar with. I would be inclined to say post mint damage. It looks like someone took a quarter and...
Congrats, that's quite a find.
I've never heard of this. What does this do to the value? Do these need to be graded differently? Really cool piece you have there!
$15 is a good price, maybe a little low. Having the date on it certainly adds value. I got a 90% off center Lincoln (no date) at FUN for $6. Off...
