RPM determination.
Your picture of the mm is too distant and blurry to be useful here. Can you get a clearer and closer shot of your mm including the date in the...
It kind of looks like staining to me but could very well be the result of a science experiment (7th grade variety). Also agree on die...
Watch your staples.
Thanks. Unfortunately just a scratch but if it was a rim-to-rim crack that would have been a fine find. Keep hunting. You’ll find one with time.
Welcome AMA. When taking a picture, crop the photo to eliminate busyness and post enlarged (in focus) photos. Rather hard to tell what you may...
Typical is one war nickel per $100 box. You have 3 @ $40. I say you did well!!
I need to see more of your coin, but I'm leaning towards 1945-P RPM-017. Can you show more shots of the obverse and reverse?
Definitely an RPM. There are so many that it’ll take a little effort to look it up. Try Variety Vista. I’ll check when I get home to my resources...
You are reading my mind!! I was hinting at the 'reveal' as a spin on your 500 box challenge. Perhaps a thread on a few of the interesting side...
Same in my neck of the woods. Small coin dumps will find their way to a collector near you. Be that collector.
I think your updates will bear out how many sets you can build. I’m guessing 2-3 relative to the 50D and 39D. But there is always a nemesis coin...
I’m curious of the following: How many circulation sets of Jefferson Nickels will your challenge yield? How close to a complete set of Buffalo...
The Ducat I found was a little smaller and lighter than a Jefferson. 2 cent euros also turn up regularly. I'm guessing that it is possible, but...
A 1 in a 1,000,000 find? We will have to wait and see!!
That was decent! I wonder if a Shield will turn up in 500 boxes. That would be really cool. Has it happened for you before? Anyone here?
I had to take a look on eBay to see what folks were paying/selling for and found that the range was reasonably significant especially when the Buy...
Same here but they sell at the same range the auction board fetches. They literally have a coffee can filled with off center cents for $1-2. They...
Looks like a damage mm. Unless you can find markers, I think it's just a 1963D.
These regularly post at an LCS I go to for about $1-2. From what I've seen, most folks are looking for a date/partial date and 30-60% off center....
Separate names with a comma.
