I see it as a die scratch although PM soldering job looks quite possible.
Doesn't matter. NCG is an SSS (scamming self slabber).
1. What's "variety Vista"? 2. What's the value in your estimated grade for a common coin? 3a. Are there other varieties of your coin that would...
For what I can find there were several die (marriage?) varieties for the 1939 Jefferson Nickels. I've decided to list my complete BU date/mm set...
My first reaction was "no". BUT with the speed of the presses I think it's a distinct possibility. Water wouldn't have enough time to be...
Whitman (the Baltimore version) is easy for me. About 35 miles and 1 hour door-to-door. The summer show is June 22-25. Normally I go on Friday but...

If it were me I'd just tell myself to "live with it". There's the potential to do damage especially if it's been that way since the "gitgo", i.e.,...
Yep. And I'd pay more for an AU-58 than I would an MS-60. But the neat thing is you often don't have to.
Now THAT'S an interesting type set!!!
Yep, what the other have said. The acetone removed the PVC which exposed the damage underneath that the PVC had done.
See if you can borrow a copy of Snow's guide, The Flying Eagle & Indian Head Cent Attribution Guide. That would give you a good chance to ID your...
Thank heavens eBay wasn't added to the list.
Sounds correct. If a site lists a price I'd like to know it's as of 2016, not 2006. That sort of thing.
That's certainly going to be of help. But some of the tougher info to get is for such items as: -- Capped Bust Quarters by Browning Number --...
Separate names with a comma.
