Here are two close up pics. If you look closely, you can see how the lines run straight across.
Well I am glad that both of you are around to have the opportunity to clean up :D
There really isn't much more you can do than to trust the person looking at the coins. If you don't trust them, don't sell to them. From our...
Kind of hard to go wrong at 10 cents a piece. Even if you over-payed, you can flip them and give them away as tips. A fantastic way to make...
I am having difficulties with PAyPal also. Must be a system error. Maybe with half the country home for the holiday weekend too many people are...

While it is possible for planchet errors to occur during the minting process, those are relatively easy to spot when you have viewed many...
