I keep the 1976 ones and one example of the other dates. besides that they are all spenders. :)
it could be, but could also be a stain. I can't really tell. I think the front of the forehead could be a crack, but the back appears to be more...
On the bright side, this is a lesson for you, and it is a relatively cheap lesson. Much better than buying an "uncirculated OBW Morgan roll CC...
How can he be happy when he is looking at fake and fraudulent slabs + coins so often? I'd find it difficult. It takes a special person to expose...
Yep, it's a dangerous game to play. How far back are we willing to go? What timeframe was everything "rightfully owned" and how do we get them...
Officina is separate from mint, if my understanding is correct. Usually the mint is on the bottom at the exergue, officina is to the left or...

Correct, but at least with a search engine / written word you have the option of interpreting the information for yourself. "Answer bots" do the...

Good photos, but it looks like it was in an aggressive crimping machine as stated above. The displaced metal is a key sign of damage. Keep looking!
Depends... Are we talking about KNOWN mintages? If so, and the requirement is that it was issued by a government, it would likely be the 1891...
Not quite serious enough to be a BIE cent, but it is approaching it. Good catch. Keep an eye out for these, they are pretty cool!
Exceptional! Definitely more costly than my vehicle at the moment. These are three hard-to-hit criterion for coins of this age, it appears. You...
