Not a proof. This is the coin: [ATTACH]
If they can't read a date they won't grade it. But it could be attributed as a mint error if they say double struck. Which is a different type of...
The 71 is rare. That's why I listed the most common dates. Those stars may be worth something. I haven't seen MD that drastic, and a multiple...
It really is an XF/AU slider. I went AU on the key date grade bias. The problem is, this coin is a super strong 45 but there's no grade between 45...
Small amount of silver and the value takes a huge jump between VF and XF. So if this is a good conditioned coin you made out huge....
I think more 1982 cents were produced than any other coin/ denomination/ country in the history of the universe. Around 17 billion.
Damage on both sides. If you can see the date clearly, you would also be able to see a mint mark. It's a plain 1909.
The stars on the reverse are very interesting. As for the date the most likely are 70,72,73,74. Use a VERY bright light and an eye loupe and angle...
TexAg The first photo is the silver stuff, and then everything else. I had a penny with a cross carved into it, but I sent it to a friend....
There is a big difference between unplated, and plating removed. The 1st one has had the plating removed. The 2nd one still looks like it has the...
The large has a big triangle on the lower left S serif. You can see that clearly on Lehigh96's coin.[ATTACH]
It's probably a Chinese fake. (I mentioned this in post #4). See the other thread that Paddy posted....
That's very interesting. A keeper. Regular bronze ones are about a dollar. Maybe that one is more with the different alloy mixture.
How do I know the EBay coin is real? Gold doesn't really tarnish much. And cleans up very easily. Not the kind of coin/token I would buy raw. The...
I believe this is an Israeli phone token. Not to be used as currency, but in pay phones. Or some other public phone service deal. The Hebrew...
You wouldn't cut a 1943 copper in half unless you already knew it was fake. I would suspect they are buying these and trying to sell them. Testing...
It doesn't work that way. First it's not legal. Second, copper cents are alloyed they are not Grade A copper, and you will receive 25% of the spot...
As for the 1935-S it would have to be Mint State 65 or higher, which are fancy auction house coins. If your coin has circulated, even in good...
When a coin is double struck, which is very rare, you would see 2 Lincolns and 2 dates etc. Not one. It's almost always damage.
I'm not seeing it. But compare your coin to this: https://www.doubleddie.com/828886.html
