Sure, Michael Fey finds it interesting....that's nice. So what. All partial collar errors are interesting. I think yours is interesting. And I...
As an admission that we reached our peak in the arts before the 1920's and we have been going downhill ever since.
I believe there is only one VAM for 1893-S, and a RR rim coin would still be the same VAM number. VAM collectors are collecting die varieties not...
Will comment later.
I would suspect we are looking at a dryer coin.
On the first one the head style doesn't really look like a 94. Looks more like a 95 or a 96. Notice how the L is away from the cap. The only 95...
Yep N-5. We agree.
I came up with the obv of N-5 and 6. (Same Obv) I keyed on the sixth star pointing at the tip of the coronet. That would be N-2, N-5,6, or...
Seven rolls of wheats, worth about $10.50 cost $5 to ship, so so if I was buying I would be looking at paying no more than $5.50 for the rolls....

Genuine mint error! This is a called a die break. The die cracked and then finally a piece of the die broke away and fell off the die. When it...
Don't waste money sending it anywhere, it is unquestionable a fake and not even a good fake.
Hmmm, it turns out I don't have an S-42 yet either, but two others have already said they are watching it so maybe I'll just back off from it.
If it's genuine, it may actually be worth LESS because of the railroad rim. It would be a classic case of a a white elephant. Collectors of...
Now you need to indroduce them to Senator John Sherman whose silver purchase act replaced the Bland Allison act, increased the amount of silver...
On the 1827 I agree with Idhair O-113a. I believe the 1828 is O-117. I'm having problems with the 1819 though. I can't get it to match up to...
I've already RSVP'ed my regrets, so tell her I said you could have mine. :)
No there was no theft, at least not by an individual. The State of Louisiana took over the mint and the bullion it contained for their own use...
I'd say environmental discoloration.
