Depends on what brand of soap. Also, using a Brillo pad with the hot water and a little Lava Soap may just give a coin a slight cleaning effect....
Could be MS63 or there abouts. Don't forget for a coin that is worth about $35 to $45 it may not be woth having it slabbed and graded but that's...
Actually there are usually coin show listings on the PCGS web site. However, I just typed in Illinois coin shows and up poped a list of all the...
You didn't say which ones of each. You are aware that some coins are made of silver, some are partially silver, some are silver plated, some have...
Nice coin. At least AU and maybe more. Just send it to me to be sure. Of course I wouldn't send it back you know.
OK now here is the real thing. You go back with the conferate money and buy clothing because you look like a freak with todays cloths. Then you...
Threads such as this one are educational. I don't know about most people but I always print out these types. This one will go into my hugh book...
May not be popular because they don't fit well into a Pop Machine. Also, can't use them in gum ball machines. Notice there are no slots for...
That web site suggested is a great method of determining the steps on a Jefferson Nickel. However, try to remember that there are two sides to a...

For sure the 39 one has minor doubling. Me thinks we pay to much attention to such minor errors on coins. AHHHH, but alas there. I go to about 2...
I really like the Conferderate money idea. Since any check made out today would not be in accorcance with a earlier system at some banks. Then...
It might be worth a try sending it in to PCGS for grading and verification. If it is a variety of the 42.41 they would know and it would be labled...
Hey Jim M I'll bet if you broke that 42/41 out and resent to PCGS it would come back graded a lot higher. Nice coin. Hate to ask what you paid for...
JBK: I'm sure you believe that. However, in reality just because something is law don't make it so. So many items are made in other countries...

I'm suspicious. The add says it is PCGS encapsulated but the photo dosen't show a slab. Why would that be on ebay. Something is wrong there.
Would have been smart to say that these are Lincoln Cents. Could be just about anything. If you want to find out all about those coins contact...
