That's a dent. It happened after the coin was minted, and adds no value. Welcome to CoinTalk!
I believe you're right. For at least the last 20 years, eBay has used "proxy bidding" -- you enter your max, and eBay calculates the minimum...
Yep, You're Doing It Right. :)
Because I came back into the hobby during the peak of the metal-price surge (2010-2012); for a while, the copper and nickel metal in a five-cent...
Copper cents and nickels (don't judge) go into a glass one-quart pickle jar. Everything else gets cycled into various self-checkout machines,...
Yay! Gimme that near-instant gratification. I have no clue how to grade these, so I'll just be watching and waiting to learn.
And you're one hundred percent confident in your ability to distinguish between wear and strike weakness from a single photo? If so, good on you;...

LOL! Winner, winner, chicken dinner...
And perhaps worse, as long as inflation exists, $800 in face value will be worth less in the future. In other words, these may appreciate somewhat...
Just needs more study to say whether there's a D on the back...
Bookmarking this thread so I can be annoying the next time someone says "if you're a beginner, don't buy raw coins, only buy slabbed". :rolleyes:
Now there's a description that should have been saved for posteriors. Posterity. One of those.
That's a pretty convincing 1921 to me...!
I get plenty of schadenfreude from eBay in spit of this policy. What bugs me is that we can't see a seller's history of bogus listings. If it's...
All I see is fingertips obscuring part of the coin...?
Separate names with a comma.
