I wonder what the LM stood for. :woot:
I’m still shaking my head about this.
The Philadelphia mint stills uses the P mint mark today.
I’m a Vietnam Era Vet and all we used was straight clips of ten and banana clips that held twenty rounds.
I would think that it’s on the modern side as in the mid to late 1800’s, when gold circulated, carving one’s initials into a coin was normal. It...
Definitely a stain.
If it was struck on a copper planchet it wouldn’t be dated 2016. All copper planchets were done away with in mid-1982. You have a nickel that has...
Turn a glass upside down and put your cell phone on it. Center the coin and take a photo. Crop the photo and post in full size mode. Hope that helps.
It sure did but I was not up to par and missed that. Please forgive me.
Very nice find but I can’t believe the circulation it has seen before being found.
I can’t tell from the photos but it may be a die clash as it looks like a small part of Lincoln’s beard.
That’s barely visible. I guess it’s one of the last ones minted.

A great song that I remember well. Thanks for posting it.
It’s not a doubled die. It is a 3 over a 2. That’s why you are questioning this coin. The bottom curl of the 3 has a sharp pint on it. It is in...
It’s worn and it’s damaged. Keep looking.
With a 180* rotation you just turn the book upside down but with a 360* rotation you’d have to do a cartwheel to be in the correct position. :)
Nice find! My bat quarter has a strike through but it’s not a W.
Only the last 5 is doubled and it’s known as a Poor Man’s Doubled Die. It’s double from a tired worn die so not a true doubled die.
Separate names with a comma.
