Looks like struck through. Interesting that it goes all the way to the collar.
I've found 2 nickels during CRH events. They get released to the wild occasionally and end up in a collector's hand.
I would randomly select a few rolls to sample the population you have there. If I didn't find anything of merit, I'd stop there.
Very nice picks!
I think you are right @potty dollar 1878 . When there's an option to buy several 'rare' coins, the angle makes me assume that they know that they...
Occasionally the pocket find is in paper currency. Aside from the Star Note I shared a while back, there are some fun serial number sequences to...
Better get a handful before they are gone. ;-)
Left and right bookends...sequential. 10 book max. ;-)
@CaptainMac snagged a West Point find from the wild - First West Point Quarter Find! | Coin Talk Mac - if you go back a page, you'll see others...
It could be. Almost looks raised...but I'm undecided. Stains and shadows have gotten me in the past. @Felicia04 - You have too much glare...

They separate the RPM listings for proofs and business strikes. So that is the first criteria to pass. So it can’t be RPM 001 since that’s...
I don’t see an RPM listed for a 1968 S proof and nothing matching a DDO for a proof. I see some MD on the outer devices. What is interesting is...
