Nope. It's too far gone to do anything which wouldn't be obvious.
Never ascribe to malice that which can adequately be explained by stupidity. The guy simply hasn't learned how to take appropriate coin images...
Conceivably. Another possibility is a planchet defect or a postmint hit. Whatever it is, it's not something dip would remove. Dipping is no good...
I couldn't care less if I'm "outnumbered." It only proves you guys haven't seen overdipped coins before. Me, I've overdipped them myself, so I...
Ali Express does over a hundred billion dollars a quarter in Gross Merchandise Volume. That's 5x the size of Ebay. And they have a government...
Much of what appears on a coin is the result of simple chemistry, and in many cases chemistry can be reversed. That's what electrolysis does. I...
It's not possible to tell a coin which was dipped correctly, and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Dip is acid, and removes anything from the...
I have to completely disagree. There is no photographic evidence whatsoever here regarding dipping; in fact, the fingerprint argues against it. An...
Yes, because there are people who buy before knowing, and actually pay for them as "errors."
I don't think the toning would make a difference either way; it's not extensive enough to really add value. So, we fall back on real-world sales...
The 1967 is actually a good candidate for experimentation if nothing else, but it's the only one of them needing conservation and it's beyond...
Agreed. I will be very happy to be wrong here. :)
The interaction between freezing/heating water and the coin in that water will pull almost every type of crud off a coin eventually due to the...
I am - tentatively - calling this one PMD because the clipped-off lettering and rim do not show the characteristic weakness from being struck at...
Those are superb images.
The salient point is, there's no real "error" involved here, just normal die lifespan anomalies.
Dies are employed, of course, in obverse-reverse pairs. They don't always live their entire production lives together. Sometimes one will fail...
I can't help it if a Dremel will do for me when you can't wield anything simpler than a jackhammer. It's actually hard to comprehend that you're...
Your "simple questions" are pure obfuscation to the informed numismatist. I should be thankful for that - your BS and FUD are offering me the...
And I've worked my whole career in such areas. Obviously, it's had a bearing on my attitude. :P
