31-S is a semi key rare date. IDK but you may want to make sure it is real.
No. That costs a lot of money. It is in good condition, (AU?) but the value is prob .25 cents. Perhaps .50 cents if you found someone who wants an...
True errors are rare. Errors found in circulation are rarer still. Coins thought to be errors after viewing You Tube videos, abundant. I've found...
Yes that's true. Most 1971-S proof cents will not be as nice as the photo, but I wanted to show the contrast between the business strike and a proof.
There are a number of 59's that pop up in good condition. Someone theorized that these were saved, as a first year coin change and eventually,...

You can weigh it. If it is ULTRA light, it's missing BOTH clad layers. Generally only 1 clad layer will be missing. I can see areas of clad/...
Well, many nickels will be black from environmental damage. An improperly annealed planchet is a nice error, and there are some differences in the...
^^^^^ Inside job, or inside information.
I wonder why the overcooked nickel planchet (roll/sheet?) was not destroyed or disposed of at the mint. Which is what they are supposed to do.
First impression was AU. Not sure on the number. 53. Is the toning hiding an old cleaning? Is it market acceptable? If the graders are tightening...

Copper is not super hard. The numbers, and letters etc. are little raised areas. Coins in circulation for 80 years get banged around HARD thousand...
These were common even in the states, when I was a kid. Nicer reverse than the maple leaf I think.
