no expert on these, but it looks good. I expected to see a polished coin, but this one looks like a proof. The rims looks pretty square. Let's...
We already make a silver $1 coin in 3 finishes every year; mint state, burnished, and proof. It’s called the Silver American Eagle. Why do we...
Absolutely! Here’s one that is currently listed on the bay: PCGS 25c 1965 Washington Quarter Transitional on Silver Planchet XF40...
You need to look at the coin again, the OP was incorrect.
The rims just looked a bit square to me. The step detail was good, (which always makes me think proof), and the marks came post-Mint. That said,...
Look at the OP coin, Paul. Is it possible that it’s a diminished (circulated) Proof Coin?
That would be incorrect. The 1964 dated coins were struck at Philadelphia and Denver well into 1966 (May IIRC)
Hold on a second! That’s really rude. I quoted Wikipedia as a simple, easy to reference source. I then quoted the Coin World Almanac when you...
According to the Coin World Almanac 8th Edition pg 480 - “... to discourage hoarding it (public law 89-81 - The Coinage Act of 1965) stipulated...
No, there wasn’t. According to Wikipedia: Section 101 of The Coinage Act of 1965 authorized the Secretary of the Treasury to issue dimes,...
The Coinage Act of 1965 is the legislation.
1790s???
No, that was a 1970-D.
PCGS priceguide lists it at $17, and I think that’s a bit high. The coin’s value will depend on many factors. Pictures would also be helpful if...
My apologies for the first set of pics. I didn’t look at them closely enough. These pics show the underlying luster which is what sets these coins...
Here’s one I pulled from a dealer’s junk box: [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I could be wrong, but I see 1913, this makes it a Type II and the S Mint which is a key date and worth a few bucks.
Nice snag!
I’m super stoked!!! I dropped my wife and daughter off to have their hair done, and decided to check out the half-price bookstore. I picked up all...
I thought I had posted this one, but I can’t find it. Here’s a REALLY nice 1967 SMS coin that's currently at NGC: [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
