I thought the proof coins were struck twice, on special planchets and with more pressure.
I think they were generous on the XF 40. There is a lot of wear on the reverse. Not that it isn't a great coin, but I think even VF 30 is max....
Sal's photo is the one I was looking at and wasn't able to upload. While the 52 D over S is slight looking that tail piece underneath the D is...
Wow is correct.
Besides the huge miscut, the upside down feed is great. Must have been training people that day. I remember getting some bills in the 80's (ones)...
A lot of the reales were minted in Mexico and circulated heavily in colonial and the early US late 1700's. On the reverse of your coin at 9...
I think they print the reverse 1st? So the obverse would be upside down (lol). Very nice note. High value in the currency error arena despite the...
I imagine this coin circulated for some time before someone set it aside. Looks like a nice error to me.
Too bad about the damage to this key date. Probably a bargain at that price. As a hole filler its's worth more than that as G4 is listed at $120....

IDK who the seller is, but I find with Morgans at coin shows, B and M coin shops, Morgans are always SUPER clean and bright and white. I am not...
Most copper pennies are not worth more than one cent. You can rationalize all you want but it's just a BS excuse. There are enough crooks in the...
Just because there are people willing to buy copper cents at 2-3x face value doesn't make it ethical when you know it is only worth face value....
Suckers are collecting pre 1982 pennies for copper. Pennies are not Grade A copper which is what the copper price is for. Pennies are an alloy and...
VF, melt value.
When your coin was initially packaged, I assume it looked fine then. What happened over time, possible air leak is not a mint error. Just sloppy...
Made $1 over my gas. [ATTACH]
In 1982 they made copper cents and zinc cents. It's a transition year. It's a nice and easy set to collect, although the small dates are tougher...
If the auction is online, it's not a question of how far the winning bidder was going to go, because a snipe program will just beat the current...
