Ugh, that's awful. :(
If this were a partial-collar strike, we wouldn't see reeds on both sides of the discontinuity. If this were jewelry/mount damage, I'd expect to...
That was my first reaction, too -- but it has just erased all its losses since last September. [ATTACH] Will it go up for a while longer, or...
Hmm. Maybe someone tried to do a face transplant onto a rare (C or D) coin whose obverse was badly damaged, or carved into a love token? Edit: in...
I'm pretty sure that's not the case, although I haven't submitted any Verdicare-treated coins myself. You can rinse it off with water after...

Hey, leave a few for the rest of us! :) Working on a grading set?
Yep, the description says "silver-plated", but even with an accurate description it still violates eBay policy. Reported.
Might as well. Listings are free. Someone might bite. Consider auto-accepting offers over $100.
Abe looks like he's soaking into the surface of the coin. Also, look at that bump on the right side of the left wheat stalk, and compare it to...
1971 was a great year. Median household wages crossed $10K/year for the first time in history. The median house price was $25K. Yep, that double...
The listing was incomplete. It should have specified whether there was milk or dark chocolate inside.
