As I understand it, they were minting them. But since there were no S-mint-mark coins after 1955, I don't remember whether SF participated.
Up. There. No, higher than that.
The Mints stopped putting mintmarks on coins with the 1965-dated issues (they were still striking 1964-dated coins well past the end of that...
I'm assuming from the way it's rotting that it's a Zincoln; it would take some work to make a bronze cent look like that. Lincoln Memorial cents...
Always hard to tell from static photos, but that looks to me like discoloration from heat. I see something similar on a $2.50 classic head that...
:eek:
So only the first one is billed as a "temporary correctional facility". Seems to me that any "correctional" process is inherently "temporary" --...
That's nothing. This post was quadruple stamped! :rolleyes:
I'm not sure this is universally true. I've seen quite a few state-run abandoned-property auctions for collectible coins. It would be...
When I first got drawn into collecting (change searching) it certainly seemed that way. It seemed so unfair to this young boy that 1964 dimes and...
It's a Zincoln. They can rot that much in weeks.
And go ahead, guess his age from that photo. I dare you. ;)
I think 1971 was when they redid the reverse dies. From then on, full steps were a lot more common. Still a sight to see on a coin that entered...
Yes, exactly. You're not always the only one sniping a given auction.
If I'd been the judge setting bond, I don't think I could've resisted setting the bond to $1,017,500. Maybe he's got another bill like that at...
I still have a little regret over selling the first AGE I ever bought, a proof with the Roman numerals. I did well on the flip, but I really like...
I don't think so. It's either divide by 12 for troy pounds, or divide by something complicated to go from troy ounces to avoirdupois pounds (which...
That's also a limited-mintage issue, so not really bullion, at least in the Mint's opinion.
I don't know whether I'm stupid enough, but I'm definitely too doggone cheap. I've bought nearly all my gold either at or below spot,...
(Not that I "like" that you took a beating, but thanks for the data points...)
Separate names with a comma.
