This is exactly the problem. The doctor was wrong then and might still be wrong. If the penney was pretty new (as it probably was) then it might...
One single zinc cent can kill a mammal less than 18 lbs. This includes virtually all babies and a good percentage of toddlers.
There's enough zinc in a single penny to kill a mammal less than 18lbs. A penny doesn't stay in the stomach long and might pass through...
I thinkit would be a major blunder. The savings would be nominal at best and would decrease the value of the coins in many collectors' eyes...
Yes. The blue packs have PVC as well. I believe a good soak in acetone will correct it. If it's really valuable you might want to send it...
People will be amazed how few moderns of all dates are actually out there. They aren't missed because no one is out there looking for them....
I'd guess it's olive oil. It can be hard to get off. Detergents are probably the way to go. Don't do anything to unc coins; send them back.
Great post. I suspect that some dies missed the sandblasting back in the old days of proof set making and "know" that not all SMS dies recieved...
I'm in complete agreement generally but no agreement specifically. Don't buy any coins for investment but people have been telling me for 40...
Krause is behind the times on most modern material even with the new editions. Prices haven't changed a lot on NZ in ten years except for high...
I like NZ and believe it has a lot of long term potential. One of the ways you can tell is that very low mintages sell for no more than very high...
I don't want to discourage you in any way. However it should be considered that two mint sets out of three are very mediocre. For some dates it's...
I actually collect mint and proof set tokens. edited I've got multiples of many of them. Most of them are foreign, of course.
No. There are numerous reasons they hold up so well but in recent years it's primarily the fact that their velocity has slowed remarkably....
These sets usually have pretty dark coins. Soaking them in acetone won't lighten them up very much but does seem to stop them from getting worse....
It's just as well since in 25 years this thing will still be junky and it will take about twenty five of them to buy a candy bar. I'd save...
It's really not all that bad. They made 821 million 1966 quarters and this one is in the top 275 million or so. More than half are already...
It appears to clearly be a 1952. I could have a different opinion in hand but the date looks fine in the new pictures. Even when these are...
It's common that the date star is poorly struck. I might be able to make it out since my eye needs less information to read it but odds are it's...
Coins have been made debased and underweight for millinea. This is hardly a problem with US coins but there are many heavily worn US coins and...
Separate names with a comma.
