I'm afraid I'm too upset now to discuss it.
Do you suppose he counterstamps them while they're resting on a reverse die?
I don't often cover a wall with what I imagine to be math symbols, but when I do, I always throw in some organic chemistry diagrams. And I get...
Well, the outside layers of clad coins are exactly the same composition as the five-cent piece, but the interior is just copper. So, a five-cent...
Short answer: tradition, otherwise known as inertia. :rolleyes: Long answer: see preceding posts.
Guess this will be another branch of the grand "accelerating toning with hand sanitizer" experiment... :troll:
I think that depends a lot on what "good" means to you. "Likely to go up in value" (answer: I have no idea)? "Visually interesting" (definitely a...
I think the problem is that they do mix. Or at least "blend".
Could you elaborate on what you mean by "legal standard"?

One quick correction: it's 25% of the outer layers of clad coins, 8% of the coin's total weight. The balance is copper, also pricey, but a good...
The law against melting silver coins was repealed in 1969. That's not really the point, though. The benefit is that there are lots of people...
I'm not sure, but I started noticing something similar with nickels a few years back. I don't remember which year it was, but I noticed that all...
Those are not 2020 and 2021 coins. I assumed the question was about common circulating coins that aren't pictured.
I'm afraid that's not bokeh (out-of-focus blurring for objects closer or further away than the focal point); it's coma, a form of distortion where...
Separate names with a comma.
