I have been at some that had signs prohibiting photographs, and you may find that some dealers and collectors will also object to you taking...
Looks good to me, but as mentioned possibly cleaned.
No I hadn't. Decent S-1 but more than I can afford. That thing went for close to twice what my week in the hospital cost.
Actually I believe they plan on moving them to a different section or site and they won't appear in the regular searches. So they will "cancel"...
A lot of the nickel alloy proofs from the 1860's to 1890's have little mirror finish as well. It can be very difficult to tell mintstate and...
I feel for you, I was strictly on dial up for a long time and I'm still on dial up about half the time on the weekends. The rest of the time I'm...

Well weakly magnetic tells us it is not a steel cent and is almost certainly nickel plated. When you do get a weight on it you'll find that it...
You also have to consider the expense of attending the show for the dealers. The table fee alone for the ANA show is horrendous. They have to...
Strongly magnetic = it will jump to the magnet when it is brought close to it. (1/4 to 1/2 inch) such as a 1943 cent will do. Weakly magnetic =...
A 1946 S cent with a post mint damaged mintmark.
Two questions that have to be answered before any meaningful responses can be made. What does it weigh in grams to at least one decimal place?...
I would think that 3.24 grams would be a little on the heavy side (our cents were 3.11 and I don't believe the canadian coin has been heavier than...
1984, the mint was experimenting with other compositions and struck a bunch of copper clad steel cents. When they finished their experiments they...
