Show photos. If it's not a steel cent, (weigh it 2.7g) then it's a Chinese fake. Why would you put this coin in olive oil? I think that's only for...
Why not try to tone a 1964 Kennedy or Franklin half as a test, before ruining a bust half? And I have to agree with post #2. Throw some old...

Schroedingers coin. It exists, and it doesn't exist.
It's not worth much more than .01 cent. It's not going to be MS 68 it's not going to be worth $30-$50 to get a coin graded that's worth 1 cent....
I see a lot of people have this coin as AU (details). To me, there is nothing about the obverse that is AU in any way. It shows significant wear,...
Yes there's not many things that you can use, unless you are very knowledgeable about what you are doing it's best to use nothing. Not even mild...
No. Usually, if they dump too many coins in at once that can cause it. Also, once a coin gets rejected (foreign coin, wrong metal) often some...
I know you know what they look like. I was interested in seeing them. Forget it. Have a nice day.
Yeah I thought it was but I didn't remember, and I didn't feel like digging mine out or abusing Gizoogle. So I just edited it. I knew that it was...
It's about 100% that this is not a genuine 1849 California 50 cent gold coin. Tell me more about his research and the 7 that exist. Please provide...
Yes of course I could search for a photo online. What I was asking, was if anyone had any of these silver granules, and if they could show a...
None of them are S coins, all are P coins. Philly doesn't use a mint mark in cents (except once 2017). Once you have used tarnish remover, if any...
Yes I can see this. TY. What I was asking is if anyone had photos of the silver granules that were traded in for silver certificates.
Actually the small date Philly zinc is a little higher valued than the copper (in mint state). Since your coin is not that high a grade, it's...
There are people who collect fakes. As long as the buyer and seller both know that the coin is not real, I think it's OK to sell in that situation.
OP coin is from Philly. The 1982 small date copper that you want is from Denver. The reason is Denver only made 1982 small dates on the new zinc...
Harry if you could post a photo that would be great. I'm not going to click that link and save anything to my PC.
There's really no way for that to happen during the minting process. Without that hole it's about a dollar. With the hole, 10 cents. Many people...
Because the word defiantly means something completely different than definitely.
