This looks like a business strike to me. It may have also spent time on a necklace. I believe it is genuine and retains some color. Well struck as...
I’ve thought about that too. Mailing a brick doesn’t make sense but hauling it could work. Also, making connections with other likeminded...
Here in the northeast my mix is a little different being closer to Philadelphia but commensurate. The 2009D to 2009P is a lot different than...
Nice clash. Not sure if it’s listed at maddieclashes but BJ may want to see pictures otherwise. Nice clean coin for photos.
Looks like die deterioration and some MD. When posting pictures, having one of the obverse and reverse will help folks here with assisting in the...
That's a nice find!
You can build AU/BU sets of State Quarters CRH while looking for other finds, but it may take a while. Also, keep in mind that if you have an...
It's looking like it may be a bit of die wash based on the comparison coin. Other details look a little 'duller' on your subject coin. The...
It’s certainly not like the ‘typical’ double ears. But the thickness has me curious. I’d like to see another 2005 aside this one.

I’m a data geek so I’ll scroll either way.
Looks like a lamination error with the planchette.
Buffalo are always welcome.
Maybe attach a file with the details and the highlights in the update. The formatting gets fouled up when cutting and pasting organized tables.
Using an 8.5x11 sheet of paper divided into sections is a great way to organize your finds. Especially when moving fast...you can place it in the...
Alurid makes a good point; direction of the doubling establishes type and class of doubling. Different things to look for, but lots of common...
Gayland - here is a specimen showing both a doubled die and machine damage. If you look at the 1 and 9 you will see DD and the 7 and 2 shows DD...
This is a common finding. More or less on various denominations. I'm not sure what it's attributed to (clash? collar?), but I believe it's not...
I haven't really investigated the value of youtube relative to coin collecting, but it seems rather odd to me. Like looking into the oven to find...
I've not reviewed the tutorial posted in the Error Coins forum, but that may be a good first resource to understanding die doubling. Developing...
