It's a very poorly-done fake. We see many of these. Welcome to CoinTalk!
The inflation-adjusted minimum wage is actually lower now than it was during most of the 1970s. And that's using the official inflation numbers,...
Glad the gold offers at the June coin show were too lowball for me to accept. I'd feel like even more of a sucker now if I'd let a double eagle go...
Well, now there are posts. The good news: my SDB now contains more value than it did a couple of weeks ago. The bad news: when gold goes up this...
So, is the base an actively controlled set of electromagnets, or are you using some sort of diamagnetic material in the support? Earnshaw's...
Silver under melt is always good! Have you checked the 1942 dimes for the overdates (assuming they're P or D)?
It does, but frequently they'll say that in the big print and then say ".999 fine silver layered" or something like it in the small print. I've...
So, again, are you or are you not still holding onto silver (that poor man's metal) that another member paid you for more than two years ago?
Surely either the obverse or reverse design would be a lot less clear if that had happened, right? I figured the unique presence of both obverse...
It would've been a great deal back in the day when eBay Buyer Protection refunds didn't unwind the eBay Bucks from the purchase. Free money!...
You may still be in luck; looks like the date and mintmark are still in the parking lot...
Excellent summary. The only slight change I'd make is to recommend 90% equally with .999 at the beginning. In fact, if the .999 is non-standard (a...
Yup, two bits...
Wait, what? It's just a goofy rendering of rays -- at least, I don't think it was intended as equal representation for Plagiocephalic-Americans...
Not "breathtaking" so much as "head-exploding". Maybe someone will offer colorized versions where poor Lady Liberty's skull is restored.
I looked for that as well. But if the coin was sitting on something hard as it was pierced, it might not be distorted that way. Maybe I'll...
It looks to me like something that was driven through the coin. If a planchet had something like that in it when it was struck, I wouldn't expect...
...but don't look a gift horse in the mouth!
One troy pound of silver is 12 troy ounces, and at this evening's price, that's almost $200 worth of silver in the big medal. For the "half troy...
Well, yeah, but after someone handed them to the teller, and then the teller handed them to OP, I think the pressure's off... :rolleyes:
Separate names with a comma.
