So are these both essentially dateless coins, or did the grader think they saw enough of a date to call it 1796? If they are dateless, it's hard...
I wonder what the PCGS guarantee covers... How does anybody know that the keys or codes or whatever are real? Why would somebody auction it off...
The MS61 grade kind of cracks me up a little. How do they know it's Type II?
I couldn't find a clip of the original show but I did find this trailer. :20 shows the coin briefly. [MEDIA] Best TV theme song.

There's an old thread here https://www.cointalk.com/threads/what-does-double-dot-mean.309297/ I started collecting around 1972. Went to coin club...
Myself, I would never "invest" even 1% of my total assets into a single coin. So for someone worth $10 million or more, sure, play around with it....
Wow. This is definitely a first. I've never seen anyone claiming a variety based on pictures of printouts of pictures of a coin before. Well done?
I'm not convinced that it's even real. What's going on between the arrows and wreath on the reverse?
Let's get back to the original almost 5 year old article. "right here in New York City, in the collection of the New-York Historical Society..."...

I read about important discoveries found by re-analyzing objects in museum "basements". I never read about anything new learned from something in...
What's up with that half dollar almost splitting in half? Looks like someone started spooning it. I'm not sure if I've ever seen a silver coin...

To me it's kind of an odd article. No mention of the LD/SD varieties and why the date changed, and yet they go into detail about the design...
Of course your definition of old versus modern is pretty random if the cutoff is 1900. Morgans, Barbers, IHC, Liberty head gold are all both old...
I don't know if the Canada 1947 Maple Leaf - "privy mark" after the date - counts as a "type" but it was only one year. I have all the...
I have a few of them as well. This seems to be a fairly common design. [ATTACH]
The first thing I noticed is the font of the 9s is wrong.
Separate names with a comma.
