I recall there used to only be UNC or BU. Perhaps this transformed into just 60 or 65 during the early years of numerical grading?
All I needed was that the barcode scans as the wrong coin. It's an essential line of defense to download a free QR scanner. Interesting that the...
I think you're off by a factor of 1000. I get 617,835 tons out of 178B cents, times whatever percent copper they are. 178B x 3.11g /28 (g/oz) /16...
Weird pricing categories. What does 307-339 or 681-713 pounds cost? I wonder how badly people will lose their shirts with this if cents become...
Is your grandson a registry-oriented collector? If not, I would go with 69's. The difference between 69 and 70 seems like a roll of the dice to me...
I hate to tell you this, but that's not a "weak D", it's pareidolia on a very corroded virtually worthless 1982. Perhaps you were just messing...
NGC calls these a "mint error" but to me it's a variety, since lots of other coins would be identical. Morgan VAMs are considered varieties...
Wow, they actually removed it. That was unexpected.
From your closeups my assumption is that you think this is a DDO, and your question about getting it graded means you want it designated as a DDO....
Interesting and entertaining. Thanks for posting. I got a kick out of him calling them "pennies", thinking of all the purists I've seen on forums...
No rolls, just 40-50 wheat cents in a baggie I separated out of a globe bank I had dumped cents into when I was young and never looked through...
Oops, I should have checked Numista instead of believing the first search hit. Numista says it's a pheasant.
That's a wild turkey, not a goose. And a deep gouge across the neck and into the fields on both sides - damage.
I'm tempted to do the same, honestly. I have to clear out the man cave in preparation to have our sewer line replaced. So many baggies full of...
I don't have any wheats I would consider wonderful. This one is OK. From the unlabeled 2x2 I think I pulled this from circulation in the mid 70s....
Large letters. Note the position of S in relation to the leaf. Crazy that it was found in circulation.
I don't see the three dots icon on my desktop either. The ? option does not work on Firefox browser. I used Chrome instead and it worked. The...
This is a case where I'm not sure if I care anymore. If someone thinks they're getting a 1921 Peace dollar for $14, they deserve what they get.
Good catch. The NGC photos aren't great (https://www.ngccoin.com/certlookup/6528633-028/65/) but it doesn't appear to be the same coin - nick in...
