Wow! Very nice Capped Bust Half! Looks like an AU grade. You agree? It may be a soft strike, but from the photos it is difficult to tell for sure....
Yes, I noticed that. It seemed that many people were posting currency notes (even though I do see some coins on the first page). I wanted to...
Too bad about the obverse scratch. What a shame... Well I am going to say VF-Details on this one. Without the scratch and whatever the dark, round...

Hey CoinTalkers! Just a quick question. I was trying to figure out why Flying Eagle Cents aren't labeled with "Red (RD)" or "Red-Brown (RB)" on a...
It looks like it is most likely just cud, also refered to as a die chip, in that particular spot on the reverse making it seem as if there is an...
Hahaha! Apology excepted. ;)
Haaaa! Atomic bomb...And HEY! What do you have against 5 year-old desktop computers?! I'm running an (at least) 5 year-old Compaq desktop computer...
This is just a fun thread for people of the CoinTalk website to share and showoff some of their newest additions to their collection. Please,...

Improper alloy mixture near the edge of the planchet possibly? It is likely just PMD of some sort. -Brian
That is interesting! I find it funny that it is as if they tried to merge the obverse and reverse of the Wheat Cent together creating that...
This is acutally what I believe to be the misplaced date variety and not FS-50-1876-302 (which is a repunched date) but actually FS-50-1876-303....
No problem at all! Either way, it is still an interesting "toy" to own and a fantastic conversation piece. :) -Brian
Yes; as previously said, it looks to be a genuine IHC but it is very likely that someone molded two obverses of an Indian Head Cent together...
I think you've misread my previous post. I didnt say that a clad dime was STRUCK on the obverse, I said "a clad dime was STUCK to the obverse". I...
