I'm sure the dead from both countries during WWI will be relieved.
Looks like pliers to me.
No. 'P' mint marks weren't added until 1980 on all coins except the cent. SBA $'s got them in '79.
It depends on whether you live in the southeastern U.S., or the southwestern U.S. Humidity and heat are two of the killers for metal.
Beautiful note in nice condition. Yes, the size is impressive. I think more so than large-size U.S. notes. It would be interesting to know what...
I like to use chop sticks when I eat Japanese or Chinese food, but not when I handle coins. And, btw, that is not a proof. Just a polished cent.
It is a guide; more for information on coin types and specifications. Pricing is a ballpark to show only estimated values and rarity.

Anything on the other side opposite the mark? I agree with it being damage, doesn't look like a strike-thru error.
I'll agree with that. PCGS shows almost 1,800 graded, which would include regrades, and NGC shows almost 900 - both in all grades. The concept...
[ATTACH][ATTACH] The Branch Mint "proofs" should really be notated as Specimens. Canada didn't issue true proofs until 1967 because they didn't...
Same, only worse with the 3/4 ounce Kennedy bullion piece.
Most of the coins issued are gems. Who cares whether it is 68, 69 or 70. Most people couldn't tell the difference. Baseball cards used to be...
Go to any coin show. Ask around if anyone has a 1916-D Mercury Dime and/or a 1916 Standing Liberty Quarter. You will probably find between half...
This is a fake. 1879 is a Proof Only date, so it is exceptionally rare. Unfortunately, this is one of the Chinese fakes that are being imported...
Yes, but I think this was for potential future posts.
Separate names with a comma.
