Weight for a clad quarter is 5.67 +/- .227 grams so your coin is well within the tolerance range. If it had been missing both clad layers it...
Well I have done some searching and I believe what it probably is is a military challenge coin, which means that while it is golden in color, it...
I doubt if PCGS or NGC would do it, but ICG probably would.
And what is the difference between the two? The "collectible" the mint sells has a W on it. And if the Mint sold the five oz pieces they ould...
I'm surprised it went that cheap. For an 1804 that was actually a very desirable coin. 1804 large cents are seldom found nice and for all...
Up until that point the half dollar was a regular circulating coin that was in common everyday use. But EVERYONE wanted the new coin with the...
Without knowing the weight it is NOT possible to say anything meaningful about this coin. At this point it is all just speculation as to what it is.
Missing initials can either be from an overpolished dies or just a filled die (and in the case of a filled die they can come and go.) and they can...

Bryan Money is probably a better name since they do come in denominations other than dollars. Yep but it doesn't mean much. Doesn't mean silver...
Writing it on the invoice or including a separate letter will usually do it. If it doesn't you can send a certified letter (so you have legal...
Like you said they can't touch them in China and going after eBay is difficult because eBay is not breaking any laws. And demand action against...
Got a link? I have PCS slabs but nothing that looks like the PCGS slabs
I believe that digital book is a price guide not really a digital D&H. I would be pleased to find out I'm wrong though. There is a pdf...
If you can see the detail on the raised areas then I can pretty well guarantee it is post mint damage. Dies are "flat" There is only one way you...
