Your dateless IHC appears to be 40-45% O/C. Perhaps @Fred Weinberg can give you a ballpark figure since it is uncertified. Chris
I think it is just a well-circulated coin. Chris
Don't be too hard on yourself. You're still learning. Now, for the 1986 Lincoln cent, it would be better if you started a new thread in the...
You know, if I had said anything else, I would appear to be a pretty big idiot considering that I have about 18,000 uncirculated Westward Journey...
Please don't take this the wrong way, but you are looking for errors on coins when you don't even understand the minting process necessary to make...
For the years 2004-2006 the US Mint redesigned the Jefferson nickel to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the Lewis & Clark Expedition to explore...
In 1995, I took an AutoCAD course which required that I design and construct a bridge with a 12" span entirely out of toothpicks. Weights were...
Die cracks are very common on the old cartwheels. It takes about 150 tons of pressure to strike them, so the dies take a real beating. There are a...
Just out of curiosity, how many rolls did it take for you to find it? Chris
Welcome to the neighborhood, Cody! Like @SchwaVB57 said, both are common dates. For the Kennedy series, you might keep an eye out for the 1972D &...
I thought about that, too, but it would take a real idiot to try to make a double strike and a clipped planchet on the same coin. Maybe I'm giving...

That is surely true for the obverse damage because of the backward lettering, but on the reverse, the large arc is much wider than the rim of...
Unfortunately, you have just destroyed any numismatic premium it might have had by cleaning it improperly. For most collectors, you will be lucky...
First, welcome to the neighborhood, Patrick! You'll have to be more specific. I don't know what you mean. Are you referring to tokens, in...
Since these are classified as errors, you might want to keep them in a separate album and build this album as a separate collection. They're not...
Yes, I would like to know what company graded it, too! The obverse looks like it has been polished. Chris
@paddyman98 So, you didn't think I could read backwards, huh? Chris
That would be the designer's initials, "FG" (on the reverse) for Frank Gasparro who was the Chief Engraver at the US Mint. It appears that your...
@Michael T Ostrander It may be, but it is hard for me to tell from that photo. It would be better if you cropped out the unnecessary background...
Separate names with a comma.
