So, do they really call it that because the teeth are the same color as an Oreo cookie?
Technically, you've got it backwards. Sulfur certainly does tarnish coins, by combining with the coin's silver or copper to produce sulfides,...
We're rough on people who come in insisting that they've struck it rich because they found a coin that was run over in the parking lot or pounded...
Fake as can be. There are tons of fake coins on eBay now that look just like this. Good thing eBay decided to get rid of their coin enforcement...
Went ahead and reported as copyright/trademark violation (fake PCGS slab), which might stand a better chance of getting attention than the...
I finally saw one of these at last month's local show. I was completely unprepared for the color. It looks like bleached copper. (Not copper...

One cool thing about having computers thousands of times faster today: they have more than enough power to pretend to be one of the old machines....
I guess we all did, except those of us on or south of the equator. :) Glad you're able to "make hay while the sun shines" (quite literally), and...
Yes, it definitely would. In another life, I used acetone to remove cyanoacrylate glue from fingernails.
It got punched with something (which is "post-mint damage", not an error). If you look on the obverse (front) of the coin, you should see a spot...

I understand what you're saying, but I still think it's a fallacy, along the lines of thinking that a hundred cents is "more quantity" than ten...
Was trying to remember what brought me here, and while the search function makes it really hard to find your first post (how about an "older than"...
"instead"? :troll:
