What is the point of a bank even keeping halves in stock? No one uses them. No one gets them in change, no one spends them. I am talking...
Here's an SBA struck on a Sac. [ATTACH]
Perhaps in this case, the Sacagawea is golden and the SBA is silver colored. [ATTACH]
When the planchet size is smaller (larger won't fit into the smaller hub) it's easier to tell. i.e. a quarter struck on a nickel planchet, etc....
Yeah I am confused. I thought the first post was the coin you are discussing. And Tyler it appears there are both types of S mm's for proof coins,...
Yes I am not following. Was asking about the S mintmark in the original post.
Coin Star has been dry lately. Today $1.21 [ATTACH]

Nice that they are consecutive and they seem crisp. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
These are all modern coins, tons were produced. They are not worth much more than 1 cent each. If one of these was in spectacular condition, it...
I think it's the obverse that is blank.

With 8 numbers there are always going to be numbers that look good, or are "close". Try posting this one (photo) in the "ALMOST" thread in the...
Never heard this term. Usually it is X x face, 14x face, 13x face. $1.40 for a dime, 1.30 etc. To find the spot price all you have to do is pop...
.10 cent coin in a $30 holder. Now you're talking my language.
ErolGarip Why don't you add up all the listed/known/published mintages from 1959- present for the Lincoln Cent, and then read my post again.
I'm not saying 3.29 is a valuable error, what I am saying it is outside tolerance.
I think grading is warranted on an 1899 in this condition. It should grade in the 60's unless some flaws are hidden in the photo. The value in...
We have been through this a few times. Fred Weinberg posted the copper Lincoln cent tolerance at 2 grains. ( 2.98-3.24) 3.29 is over that tolerance.
