How would the US Treasury (or any other Federal branch) prosecute a foreign national for activity outside US borders? Especially when that...
Another case of "acetone can sometimes alter copper's color"? Wonder if a bit of acetic acid might have made its way into the acetone?
I'd love to have a couple of these tiniest fractionals someday, but not as long as I keep doing worse than chance on guessing which ones are real...
Applying the "hits always look worse on big pictures of small coins" filter, I'll go with 64.
Wow -- it looks almost as if someone noticed the D was missing from the "original", and punched it in incuse before making a new set of dies....

Not sure I understand here. The buyer hasn't gained anything. Is this a reference to eBay reporting annual total sales over $600 to the IRS? I...
