I waited until others chimed in on possible solutions, mostly because I'm just going to go with an EWAG. Since silver and copper don't "rust"...
Too baggy on the cheek and in the field in front of the face. And there's what appears to be some rim hits just below the eye. With luck I'd say...
If/When I start my die marriage set of Capped Bust half cents THEN might be the time for me to invest in a stereomicroscope. TBD
I'd like to have stereomicroscope with attached camera. But then I sit back and ask myself why. After an initial burst of imaging I think it...
Yep, for business strikes, this is the key although the 1864 Small Motto is right up there with it. Nice coin to have.
This is a coin I'll never see in my collection. Okay, maybe when I'm dreaming. Very impressive. Is that a die crack on the reverse? For some...
The 1899 IHC was expected. The other two IHC's were late additions. But it was the quarter that put me into the poor house. I've still got to...
WOW!!! You aren't a cheap date :eek: My 1893-S is G-6. My 1894 is VF-35. Those aren't every day coins. And that's where they'll stay. There...
I'll be there Sat morning around opening time. I don't go to the Vienna show anymore. WAY too crowded. MFD has an IHC (1899) waiting for me to...
Well done. I've been touting silver Roosies for quite a while. I completed my set (business strikes and proofs) about two years ago. The set...
I see one possibility for this. US Eagles, Canadian Maples, and So. African K-Rands are often collected by date making them a cross between...
Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! It hurts. This is one of the top 5 coins on my wantlist (actually I want BOTH varieties). And I figure at best I can...
Great deal. Are you going to be able to figure out a way to take pictures through it? THAT would be the "cat's meow".
But the bottom line is that you lose both ways. It's just that one way is less negative than the other. And don't forget that bullion costs a...
eBay has the biggest audience. Teletrade for somewhat better coins. Heritage for even better coins.
No answer at the moment since I'm going through the same struggle. Deciding whether to sell a part of my collection to afford another part. But...
#1 - If you are searching coins (raw or unattributed slabs) on eBay for particular die pairs, what do you do about listings with images not good...
What he said. The price creeps up very slowly all the way through AU. Look around and get a better coin.
All 1943 cents from all the Mints were made of steel coated with zinc, hence the color you're seeing. (Just to keep the record straight there...
What you have showed us is a dime, not a half dime.
