Not being an expert on this issue, but this coin appears to be a regular 1922-D weak reverse, with damage to the MM that someone tried to remove....
The problem with the luster on a cleaned coin, is you have scraped away the patina and a very thin layer of metal exposing a shinier layer...
Initially I was a soft AU- cleaned. But after reading the comments, XF- cleaned seems correct.
Don't understand any of this. If you don't have BOTH bills that are matching you have nothing. The photo isn't a star note. So they are claiming a...
I'm sorry. IDK what I was thinking, I have been sick the last few days. Yes the steelies will stick to a magnet because of the iron content in the...
Plating doesn't have to be magnetic. Only nickel, iron and cobalt are magnetic. Because US nickels are only 25% nickel they don't stick to a...
If it were a genuine 1944 steelie the value is incredibly high. USA Coin Book lists 30 of these pieces. IDK how you can be certain it was...
It did look like a strike through to me. ^^^^^ That would be an error and a keeper.
Even with the sterling silver heart charm it was brutal out there. The picture makes it look like an OK hunt, but as Wreckless Eric said: I'd go...
Prices have more than doubled in most areas. I realize my degree in economics means nothing. Nor my 6 figure returns buying and selling stocks...
PMs basically have been keeping pace with inflation. So you aren't losing money. For example you buy 1000 worth of gold and in 2 years the...
MS- details? That huge chunk and other lines on the face, and probable cleaning.
I saw the photo. It appeared the date had been struck by something post mint, and a couple of the digits were scratched, scraped etc. I don't...
Seems difficult to be able to tell the difference between remnant planchet roughness, and ordinary nicks and scratches. I've seen tons of MS coins...
My machines used to get "jammed" up and there were often nice little piles in the reject slot. They have "fixed" that, so it only happens once in...
Thanks. I couldn't see the date before. Sacagawea it is. I pulled a couple of NIFCs recently, and I thought yours could be as well. Native...
The chatter I referenced are the tons of tiny scratches on the cheek. There are more on the collar, in the hair, and a few thin scratches on...
The Sacagawea has the date on the obverse. This coin is a Native American dollar, the Sac has an eagle on the reverse and the Native American...
The hunt was a scrounge, so I came up a little short on my gas expense, but the ring is silver a little over 2 grams so it's a push.[ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I like the OP coin, but it is much closer to AG-03. I don't see it as a G-04 at all.
