My original intent was to buy the proof Libertad set, but instead I bought a hoard of Canadian cents. The Libertad's will have to wait a couple of...
It depends on who I'm showing them to. I have nothing that really excites a die-hard collector. Most of my stuff is "seen one, seen 'em all" types...
Never graded a coin in my life.... but I'm gonna guess AU50.
Just for the record..... I'd love to own any of your rainbow-toned coins as well:smile
Another Clipped Planchet, 1980 this time: [IMG]
Here's a clipped planchet (although minor) that I found in the batch. The Blakesley Effect is clearly visible on the obverse: [IMG] [IMG]
I'm so sorry to hear of this happening to you! I agree that it's the feeling of "being violated" that's the worst part when something like this...
This is too much fun! I pulled these two out of a bucket. Both have doubling on the date. One is a 1938 and the other a 1939. I suspect it's...
At a glance, I have at least one Unc. roll of 1964's. Most of the rolls are '62's, 65's, 67's, 82's and '85's. There's a lot of paper rolls that...
Still up in the air about that.... I'm going to examine a few rolls this coming weekend. I'll post my decision on the weekend or list them in the...
This is the kind of coin I'd love to have in my collection. I like the ones with unusual toning or patina that makes it stand apart from other...
Agreed! For one hundred and forty-seven years it remained undiscovered until it reached your hands! Good eye and congratulations!
I've bought large quantities of U.S. cents to search through over the last year. I knew from the start that the keys and semi-keys had been pulled...
Hi KurtS! I have the reference material for the 1949 "A to denticles" from Ken Potter.:) There's quite a few '49's in this batch so I think there...
I agree. Gold would have to almost double before you got a return on your gram. Gold is at $35(+-) per gram right now and you're paying $48 and...
Very interesting presentation! Well done!:thumb:
Agreed! For what some companies pay for your gold, you'd be better off with a cat!:D
I love those two from Chile and Argentina!
I've come across several of these cents that have amazing toning in the collection I just bought. The pics just don't convey accurately just how...
Very nice! That certainly is a special note. I'm envious!
