I was up late looking at the eclipse, and my brain isn't working very well today. I see two separate appearances of the word QUARTER, and neither...
Any speculation on why none of the secondary strikes appear to be reversed?
Unless they're 1964.
$5 vs. $1280 per troy ounce? And it is being used to make fake coins right now. Not gold-plated, but gold-enrobed tungsten discs, with the gold...
Tungsten is less dense than gold by only about a third of a percent. Do you think you could reliably distinguish 2.8mm from 2.81mm -- a 10-micron...
I'm sorry I missed it. I really hope Kurt will be back, but his second-to-last post gives me a bad feeling. It's not the sort of thing that would...
And remember that, in the future "dream scenario" where you're trying to buy food or buy your way into another country with bullion, your...

The good news? If someone did dump a bunch of IHCs and V-nickels into that machine, with only the large cent rejected... ...they're all headed...
An aside: all this recent discussion sent me off to his site, where I saw that he'd recently done Coiled Hair Stella restrikes. I was sad to have...
And that's the foot in the door for anyone who wants to talk me out of being a Carr fan, I suppose. It bugs me a bit to think of consuming a real...
Hey, everybody, let's turn EVERY thread into a Carr thread!
Bare breast (no mail) on Liberty, no stars beneath the eagle on reverse. Even if the obverse is completely slick, you can tell a Type I by looking...
So, here's another interesting item from the same seller: 1991-S Washington Quarter NGC PF68 Ultra Cameo Vibrant Gold & Yellow Toned Color It...
Now that would be worth a followup comment.
