Beaten, but I agree!! Jim
The best general book is probably the ANA ( American Numismatic Assoc.) Guiding Standards book edit. by Ken Bressett and published by Whitman. Jim
Anything that would remove it would have to be corrosive itself, and the action would change the overall color of the coin to artificial in my...
I meant different RPMs for this year. I am not sure of the population of this one. Usually price boost over the normal cent is related to the...
There are a lot of these, but I would say 1961D-1MM-011. Over 77 different ones on Coppercoins.com Jim
