The $1 bill is a detriment because it cost us a fortune to make them. They last about 18 months at best while the $1 coin last approx 30 years. So...
I don't think so, I think it's just the pics. The coin is highly reflective as can be seen in the last pic - that's the guys skin you see...
Really hard to say for sure based on your pictures, they are too small. But that really looks more like a modern reproduction than a genuine coin....
Thanks but no thanks - I gotta be able to look at myself in the mirror in the morning. :D
If it wasn't for that hit in front of the ear I'd say it had a shot at 66PL. But since it does have it, it might be limited to 64. That's a pretty...
Oh c'mon now Dick, that can't be true. The seller has 100% feedback. All those buyers were happy so the coin must be a genuine error. Even if it...
What he said.
Yes, to everything you asked. There is no rule. PVC residue can accumulate on a coin in as little as a week or 20 years later. It can damage the...
Ya know, I paid way less than that for my sets. I had 6 of them. Think the most I paid for one was $69. Of course I sold them all later when I...
Not necessarily. Think about mechanical doubling, it's caused by a die bounce or a die shifting during the strike. And yet it typically occurs on...
Because some stupid idiot started up a campaign and petitioned the govt. to redesign our coins. He should probably be shot :rolleyes:
It's been dipped to death, then dipped one more time just to make sure it was dead.
Yeah, that's true right now. But they have already cut the mintage numbers by 65%. That means in 2009 they only minted 1/3 of the coins they...
eric - do the 1894-S dimes exist ? Do the 1913 Liberty nickels exist ? Do any of the Sacky/SQ mules exist ? Do any 1965, '66, and '67 dimes,...
Happens all the time, and is easy to understand. They search for a topic of interest, (to them it is a new thread because they've not seen it...
Two things - study and patience.
What you are seeing on the reverse at 4 o'clock is called finning. It happens when a coin is struck with greater than normal pressure, when the...
Raider is right - I missed the '99 Morgan. edit - Unless LostBob has an already established and trusted name on ebay - and I gather he does...
I can't speak about the paper money at all - know nothing about it. But from among the coins, nothing is going to be worth more than a few...
I'd say 63, but I suspect PCGS said 64 - way too many hairlines for a 65.
