I need someone to explain this to me. I was under the impression that specimen coins came from the early days of the US mint when they didn't...
Clembo, I have to say that I never liked the double dime until last week when a member of the NGC forum posted the coin in the following link....
Looking for an old pro for this one.... I found this post on "Looking for an old pro for this one...." interesting and have nominated it...
If he can't nominate the thread, than I will do it for him.
Ruben, Whizzing is defined by PCGS in THE OFFICIAL GUIDE TO COIN GRADING AND COUNTERFEIT DETECTION as "The process of mechanically moving the...
These are much better. If the engraver of the potty hobo had more talent, it would be a great piece of edited, i mean work.:goof:...

WOW Julien, you have some bangin coins. You obviously need to post more photos more often. We want to see them all.:smile
I will give you what I have photographically. The grading definitions used are from David W. Lange's THE COMPLETE GUIDE TO MERCURY DIMES. Please...
