Planes got a lot faster, I think. And quieter (electric), and louder (jets).
My first impression was "why it the 7 half again as tall as the other digits?" In the closeups, I can see that it may just be a matter of...
That 7 in the date looks off to me. Anybody else?
...I'm sure it must have shown up on the Errors forum here sometime recently: UNIQUE GRADED ANACS AU 58 STATE QUARTER COIN ERROR GREASE ERRORS...
That quote makes me nervous, because: a) It doesn't indicate that there were clad Ikes as well b) It points out that 40% quarters weren't for...
Careful there. Age also apparently makes you remember things that never happened. ;)
I've got a few as well (including some really lame ones from the wrong year), but no reeded ones. Nice find!
Those scratches all over it were made after the coin was minted, and the edge was flattened after it was minted as well. There's no telling why...

And when an accomplished error collector gives a helpful and informative reply, this very same people-skills expert says: I'll bet your teachers...

Nearly lost my dinner when I came across this listing: 1892 O MORGAN SILVER DOLLAR * QUEST MONSTER TONING /KEY DATE* 27 I don't clean coins i...
This is how they packaged mint sets in the early 1970s. There was one pack with all five Philadelphia coins plus the San Francisco cent, and...
Now, he could still be a fool but not a scammer. If you don't know that you're lying, is it really a scam?
Hmm. I saw one come up earlier today on eBay at $769 BIN, and figured it would go quickly, as I think that's lower than any of the sets that have...
It will get hazy almost instantly on contact with acetone. Even contact with acetone vapor can do it.
If those slabs are made of acrylic (which appears to be the case), absolutely no way. The slab will craze, fog, and dissolve away long before the...
