Just wanted to share the very nice gift I got from my wife. Our anniversary was yesterday and she surprised me with this for my US minted world...
Thanks for the info. This may for me, but due to the format I use for my coin photography I sometimes do not actually type that info out.
Not sure if I have played this here or not yet. Sorry if it is a repeat.[ATTACH]
Nope. The Mont in my screen name means Montana. I agree. Which is why I intended to flip it or trade it. It is always nice to have some...
Thanks @paddyman98. I will file it under Planchet error and hold onto it for a while. Maybe if I ever get to a show I will bring it along for...

Happy belated birthday. Lovely Morgans there. Nice choices!!!
Yes this is important as well. Do you have a tripod or copy stand? These really help with this.
Yes it is a 1982 D Small Date. From the "bubbles" in front of Lincolns' bust it looks to be a common Zincoln and not the extremely rare copper...
A Lion[ATTACH] Same theme please
I think this is a great idea. Yes if you carry it for a long time it will eventually remove the tiny scratches the cleaning left behind. Plus you...
