I've got Federal Half Dimes, the Logan McCloskey book. Looking to get some "in depth" guides for the other Seated Liberty issues.
I'm interested in the definitive books/guides for: -- Liberty Seated Dimes -- Liberty Seated Quarters -- Liberty Seated Half Dollars By...
Was there a racetrack there at one time?
By themselves the pastel colors don't bother me -- if they were on one side. But being on both sides I would be looking elsewhere for that date.
Tough call on the grade. For me it all depends on whether I view the "noise" on the obverse as bag marks or improper handling/storage. Bag marks =...
Didn't even know about it otherwise I might have headed down. Not too far for me (suburban MD).
Rats, now you've awoken the sleeping giant. Now I'm looking into star notes. (As if I didn't already have my fingers in enough numismatic pies.)
Bear in mind that even in slabs copper coins will tone. You need to store it well (constant temperature and low humidity) to maintain the RD...
IMO it has original surfaces. Maybe(?) a cleaning so old and light that the coin has retoned naturally which is why it's been slabbed as original....
I think the periods in the V.D.B. are way too large.
As I understand it a whizzed coin will look doubled in certain areas. The doubling is a function of the high speed rotation of the wheel doing the...
Oops, forgot to include that info. No, I do not include the star notes. For about the same reason that I don't collect proof coins. Too expensive...
[IMG] [IMG] Okay! So what? No special serial number. No errors. What IS special about this FRN to me is that it completes my Series 1969-B, all...
Here's a real one. It's an S-3 in MS-62. [IMG] [IMG]
Hmmm, I'm missing wheat cents from that time period. Have to see if Dansco has an album for them.
Yep, PMD (post-Mint damage)
Apparently die breaks to the upper corner of the monument are one of the common ones. If it were mine I'd keep it anyway. It's only one cent.
I don't collect current issues. I spend them.
Two reasons: -- I see a some small nicks scattered around; too many for a 66. And even if they are bag marks there's too many. -- I found out at...
Yeh, with "UNITED STATES" merging with the rim on the reverse G-4 would be my grade. And at that grade I'd say his asking price is about $10 high.
Separate names with a comma.
