So if one line through an S indicates a dime, two lines through an S equals one dollar, then does three lines though an S equal ten dollars? Based...
Most people are what is know as pack rats. People just like to say this is MINE and about anything or everything. Ever notice how many little kids...
I've always thought the dollar sign was a crude attempt of the San Fransico Mint to cross out thier errors by drawing lines though thier S mark.
One of the nice things about coppercoins.com is you can join their forum, ask any questions you want, post photos of your RPM's, see photos of...
Just one more probably by now boring post about the usage of Acetone on coins. On April 10, 2007 @ 5:00PM I emersed 6 coins in a beaker full of...
Please be more specific. At what settings do you use? Hot, warm or cold water? Is it a front or top loader? Are detergents used and what brand?...

The amount of errors being reported on those dollar coins is becoming a real topic everywhere. I have people telling me constantly about them....

I seldom look to see what state they are but I think someone flooded the market with 1999 and 2000 Quarters. That is what I find mostly.
A word of warning. Rinse the area with distilled water on a cotton swab. Not sure how the WD40 will affect the plastic but a long time ago rear...
Extreamly misunderstood. Note that Verdigris is in reality Cu(CH3COO)2-H OH. Normally not found on Copper coins though. What is so commonly...
