I think you need to take a course in writing. Maybe they have night classes where you live. Chris
[ATTACH] Before you spend money to have coins graded, maybe you should learn how to grade coins. Chris
Hey, genius! I've got news for you. Neither the Federal Reserve nor the Treasury produces coins for the US. That job is left to the US Mint. Chris
It would have been better if you had posted these images with the earlier thread. However, I can't tell if there is any doubling. It looks like an...
