Nicely done. Did you achieve this through a stepped conservation?
Look at the initials on the reverse. Hard to say if it’s a case of over polishing, partial fill, or Blakesley. But in the right spot. Rim looks...
I agree with our fellow enthusiasts.
No doubling on either side. There appears to be an anomaly in CENT regarding the E but perhaps a chip or dent in the die. Clearer pictures of...
Looks like the S took a hit but looks like large S.
I am interested. I suggest you begin a new thread and post the varieties, perhaps by rolling them out collectively and then introduce each...
In this example, the MD is attributed to a wobble in the equipment/die during production (during the stroke). If this were hub doubling, the...
I dug into the RDV question a little more and although this information is a bit dated...it's what I've got. Keep in mind that these are based on...
It is. There is a breakdown in Cherrypickers that suggests which reverse is more desirable. I don’t recall off hand but there was a potential...
Over polished die. You’ll see that phenomenon on many 80s cents. No premium but interesting effect.
Wait...what? :)
2 of my 3 (4?) 1950D Nickels were uncirculated (liberated) specimens. I think that it’s a fairly good likelihood that when you find a key/semikey...
I can't line up the both of the markers you show (there are 4 listed on Coppercoins) and while a DDO can have MD (since they are unrelated), this...
Yes, it's not for everyone. I'm a bit of a purist especially in areas where collecting from the wild remains productive. With time and...
It's only a matter of time. I'm not a major CRH enthusiast, but if you look at a box of coins every other week, you'll have your share of...
I agree with our fellow enthusiasts; altered. Buy a problem free coin (slabbed for that price).
Fun find!!
Excellent! I was pretty sure that I saw that one but less confident on the marker by the right wheat stalk. Were you able to conserve that coin?
You could, AP, but I think Paddy's right. Not worth spending money on something like this that's more obvious. I recommend pushing the line of...
