Just glad someone pointed this out quickly. Must think we are all noobs. Reported. We surely do not need for some new collector buying this and...
Sure there are. You find this in circulation at face and "flip" it on ebay for a profit. ;);):shame:
I don't think we will ever reach a consensus on this issue. At least not here. But if John Wexler & Ken Potter say it's true, then I know they...
If I tell I'll probably end up in a very deep river with a cement block attached to me.
I remember seeing this with the folders also. One would have to struggle to get coins in place and wear out the holes. Especially so after pushing...

Just a guess but possibly a defective planchet?
This must have been a very common die chip. I had a B.U. roll I came across that had nearly half a roll with the same chip.
Not for me. I collect a straight date set of the regular issues only. The Mint gets enough money from me for the annual sets each year and with...

Interesting piece but we will likely never know it's origin. I would think, if a merchant, it would have more info. Airmen and soldiers often...
Probably went metal detecting before the snow moves in. (Thursday)
Not sure off hand but it looks like two different DDR's. One is longer and thinner than the other.
How come the OP's avatar says new member and the pop up says "since 2014"?
There's no real answer for this that would make any difference really. Up and down and repeat. But I would like to take a ride in Doc's time machine.
How and why did this go so badly so fast? Last I looked there was not a full moon. And it does seem to me, since I've been here, that only the...
Agreed with paddyman. Flat & shelf like, not a DDR. Can't tell you about cleaning.
Battle of Cowpens Medal I think. British Vs the Americans. Jan 17th, 1781. Not a coin though.
