I believe dies are created from genuine specimens. There is a book that was recommended here (I got it on Amazon). Numismatic Forgery by Charles...
Well when did this occur? Was it in a mint bag, with another coin positioned against it, with the weight of all the others on top of it without...
I have Ed Woods proxy and he says AU-58. (Nice coin B man) Personally, I think all of these old silver coins have been dipped, or cleaned or w/e....
You can't sell it if you know it is counterfeit. And the dealer who offered the money, prob already has a customer in mind (not that he knows...
I don't care for the zinc cents. But that unplated 1986-D MS 64 is very nice.
OK. I was thinking of the coin not the die. Thank you.
Good cherry picking there.
Could that be a clash? (Slaps self in forehead)
I see the coin in the other thread. I think 60-63 is likely. While it may be a keeper, the value is very low.
I doubt it's a 66-67. Which are very high grade. I don't see the whole coin 63 is possible. Not really worth much. A 1960 small date Philly in MS...

If you figure out how much you are earning per hour, the economics show it is not worth it. As a fun hobby, you can spend your free time any way...
Economically it's not. The coins you are getting are mostly circulated and worn. For the silver hunters you can sell your halves but considering...
A "mint set" is not a proof set. Photos please.
Need photos. Offhand these numbers aren't "fancy". If you look in a few of the currency forum threads there are good links to show you which types...
Yes, I realize there is a cost factor to consider. My point was more for authentication of it being on quarter stock.
I don't think that tin would be cost effective. Tin is $9.46 a pound. Copper is $2.91 a pound. I believe tin is ruled out. Aluminum USD/lb 0.96...
He never said it was on a quarter planchet. But quarter stock that was intended for quarters and was mistakenly used on halves. I assume if it was...
Seems thin. But I am sure there are more than 1 type of MM for this year/mint because they made so many coins, they must have used many, many...
