I have to hold my nose when I go there, but you can buy these on the Chinese site for less than a dollar.
Does the edge have a seam? That would be a dead giveaway. Looks fake regardless.
I have two of them from when my dad was stationed in Germany. I'm rich! Highest mintage of the whole series. Numista says in UNC it's worth...
Doesn't cost much to keep them but I'd probably spend. They would go in a box and I'd never look at them again anyway.
The Coin Museum in Bangkok has an interesting display of all the kinds of "money" used throughout history. They call one of those in the OP image...
And then somebody posts one of those "get rich" videos claiming a coin is worth gobs of money because of the asking price on one of these bogus...
I think you mean Barber dimes. Got any pics? There are some interesting transition varieties from 1899-1905.
To me the "godless" coins are the 1911 Canadian coins with Dei Gratia omitted, and the US 1907 eagle and double eagle coins designed without the...
For sure. I love having it and it was money well spent. Note that I said "spent." The price of silver in 1971 peaked in March at $1.73 and...
My only purchase from the mint was a 1971-S brown box Ike for $10. What a great investment that was.
https://doubleddie.com/58201.html After 1986, and certainly by 1995, the mint was using single-press hubbing, so you're not going to find true...

NGC says: Yours is a nice example but even if it was FS it would have to be MS65 to be worth even $20.
I misspoke earlier, I have a 20 centavos not 10. I dug it out for pics. Maybe not as nice as I remembered but it has a lot of luster. [ATTACH]

So they didn't have a contract to buy the silver for these at a set price months or more ago? Reminds me of gasoline where when the price per...
Same. My biggest coin gamble was an SP coin graded UNC Details Cleaned by PCGS. Submitted to ANACS with conservation, they removed lacquer and it...
I don't find much stress in it, but I don't buy many coins either. I research and then set my "what it should be worth" price including fees, then...
Less than 8% underweight isn't that much for that kind of wear, especially when you factor in mint tolerance. At 1.75mm thick, it would only have...
Yeah I don't know, I only report what I manage to dig up. I've only participated in auctions on ebay, Heritage and GC. For GC it always seemed...
Separate names with a comma.
