Lots of things are possible if you're running the press and think you can get away with it.
But isn't that all it takes for an auction? ;)
Oh, I doubt I'll ever actually do that. Realistically, this is all entertainment, no matter how much I rationalize it to myself as trying to "come...
Okay, that does make it a bit less likely that someone damaged the coin deliberately. But I'm still thinking it's likely just a random array of...
Maybe I'm just lucky, but I've gotten used to much higher standards on eBay (and elsewhere). When a perfectly good scale can be had for less than...
Yeah, every once in a while I'll offer a seller a lifeline and they'll insist on honoring the sale anyhow. I just got three 2008 silver proof sets...

Remember that boiling water isn't the same as distilling it. Boiling just kills bacteria and drives out gases, but doesn't get rid of any...
Good find! The pawn shop on my way from work had five new square tubes of 1964 Kennedys -- at $179 each. Salesmen let on that he let the previous...
No, I'd say it's a typo.
Yup, I completely spaced on it. Wonder if any bargains were actually had?
Oh, ouch. :( I had no idea.
Hey, I have no trouble with assigning this a variety. With a feature this microscopic, I'd never be able to distinguish it from strike doubling on...
I think the most likely explanation for OP's coin is that it took a couple of hard hits, and our brains are good at matching random marks to...
So, I wonder which microscope manufacturer it is that's funding Wexler under the table?
