I agree. The coin's surface looks odd in the photo but perhaps it is a scan that is causing that effect.
The power pole covered with kudzu looked more like Jesus on a cross than this coin.
They are all damaged. The 1984 Quarter spent some time getting run over in a parking lot or a street.
Welcome to CoinTalk, Tim. Are you sure your Peace Dollar is genuine? Your coin is lacking in detail, especially on the reverse. And the surfaces...
I have seen it and flipped through it. It would be interesting to compare actual prices to their predictions.
Just checked my Red Book and you are correct. I'll go back and correct my previous post.
Looks like a small die chip. If so it is interesting but does not command much of a premium (if any).
Does that make it special?
What makes you think it is a 1943 Bronze cent? I see no evidence it is anything other than a damaged Wheat Cent.
Both 1968 Mint Sets and 1968 Proof Sets each contain one 40% Silver Kennedy Half Dollar. The Mint Set has one 'D' and the Proof Set has one 'S'.
All except the 1943 Steel Cents.
Gotta post a photo if you expect any kind of intelligent answer.
Were you metal detecting?
Why is the date important? The coin is damaged to the point it has no numismatic value. I would toss it in the junk bin.
I remember when a Coke cost a nickel and what an uproar there was when they went to 6 cents. (A 20% increase!) The Coke machines were retrofitted...
From CPG (Cherrypicker's Guide) Vol II (5th Edition) page 257: You must understand the die-making process to understand how this situation came...
It has been in a fire. An air bubble inside the coin expanded with the heat. It is a damaged coin with no premium. I would spend it.
If your Trade Dollar is attracted to a magnet you don't need to check anything else. It is a fake.
Who knows? A photo would help.
She's a beaut. Congrats.
