I’m thinking those scouts might be working on their coin collecting merit badge. Cool! Thanks for all the updates.
Goes with this one I got a year and a half ago. I wonder where I put it... [ATTACH]
That is definitely crazy, considering how scarce the Obv1 anomaly seems to be. I agree after taking a closer look that if the GC coin is also...
I can’t remember how much of that scene they left alone, maybe most of it without any profanity. What I’m talking about is that they chopped off...
I'm glad you did the math. My first thought was - 12mm diameter and 1/1000th oz? A 1 oz double eagle is 34mm, something's fishy in Denmark. (Does...
Fantastic! You must be the person who posted on Facebook around April 2024, or you acquired your first coin (above) from them. I saved off the FB...
Excellent! I was tracking that one for some reason, just general interest I guess because RPM/RPD stuff is usually outside my focus. I didn't bid...
There are several in the Heritage archives. Just go there and search "susan b anthony $1 struck through." The NGC ones don't specify grease, but...
There are always a couple in my jar every time I roll up the quarters. I don't think I've ever found one in a condition as bad as the OP example....
If you had 10 coins you could do the ANACS show special 10 for $140, so grading/slabbing per coin $14. Variety/error attribution would cost...
Does the edge have a seam or a casting sprue? Some contemporary counterfeits can have value. I have an 1861 dime probably worth more than a real...
I think you could still test it with lower grades that have full rims and in roughly the same condition. I'm thinking 10 in VG from both eras...
I won’t even click on it because then their view count and paycheck goes up, and it pops up more often for other people. All this stuff is...
@samclemens3991 My specialty if I have one is definitely not grading. The quote on page 179 confuses me because on page 170, Bowers seems to say...
So any anniversary number of years ending in 0 or 5? 1916 end of Barber dimes, beginning of Mercury dimes. 1836 end of Classic Head half cents....
I was also thinking something stupid like that or Unc Details Questionable Color. Looks like a beautiful coin to me.
I think you definitely can. With the wealth of images now available in auction site archives, we can search for new varieties like never before,...
Seems like it started as a bracelet piece (round holes) and then someone pounded a square nail through it twice. Why? Who knows?
I'll pile on. Even without the scratches and residue I'm not sure how it graded XF45 in the first place. CAC isn't infallible either.
