What's the weight? If it's correct (I bet it's not), then testing for silver without damaging the coin would prove it either way. Since a faker...
I don't know. However, here is a comparison photo with a known real one from 1888- Philly. Yours is much farther away from the dentils. And for a...
The cent is too large to fit in the dime press. And if it could fit, it would have to be 1982 or before. I don't think you can get a woodie from...
The reason I was at 35, is because these are very difficult to grade. And sometimes they will get the benefit of the doubt upgrade.

My first thought was fake. I don't like the color, the date or the VDB.
This coin has already been cleaned. It's a decent year, although not much premium. I would tread lightly. Perhaps something can be done to...
I have something sched. for next week. I expected this one to be a burn. [ATTACH]
Environmental damage/ acid has eaten away some of the metal. Since a dime is smaller than a cent, if a dime planchet was struck in the penny...

Hmmm. Maybe not. Look at the cut outs in the bottom of the wings on the fake. Washington's hair is all wrong especially at the bottom. I retract...
Yes that's to show the rim is clearly a fake. When I got the quarter it was very "shiny". So I looked at it closer, and I realized it was...
Better than having a 1923 and thinking it's a 1928. This is a difficult coin to grade as it appears to have wear, but the photos are not great and...
Ideally you want 5 leading zeroes (or more). Traditionally low serial numbers are 100 and less. But I guess that has been expanded to 999 or less....
Oh I didn't realize it was a toy/ fake coin. Please disregard previous post.
There are older tokens that sell for $3 and $5.
When I worked in a few casinos in Central City, Colorado, many people collected all the different tokens. You were only supposed to use them in...
The rims were completed. Show a photo next to a regular one for comparison. If it was a small planchet and struck, the rims would be missing or...
Here is my counterfeit quarter. If it is made in China (or somewhere) at 2 cents apiece and spent for .25 cents, there is a profit to be made. The...
