Clashes are fairly common and usually do not bring a premium. They aren't really an error, but they aren't really a variety either. They aren't...
You say it is lighter so the first question that needs to be answered is what does it actually weigh?
I think it suffers from die deterioration from a severely worn die.
From the picture posted it definitely is not a planchet error, it is almost certainly a die chip. A small piece chipped out of the die and the...
Yes they will be the key dates, but a "key date" whose mintage and availability is still equal or higher than the actual demand for the coin, is...
I like your "1799" :) Oh wait that is just the 1816 showing through the hole.
Sure they can, they just have to submit a lot of coins. If a big submitter sends in 10K coins and gets 50 68's, the the small submitter should...
And if they did they would be told that it didn't qualify as a like kind exchange.
1885 nickel three cent piece, business strike. Mintage 1,000
I believe most of those were originally in Sheldon's collection, which then went to Naftzger, then to Steiner. I believe in the group picture...
How much justification do you need? It wasn't what you ordered, so return them and take the opportunity to cancel the order and get your money back.
Hair is wrong, the beard is wrong, the eye is wrong, the denticals are wrong, the lettering is wrong and the date font is wrong and that is...
Yes it's almost certainly real. A while back they started producing some of the medals, especially the small size ones, at the other mints and so...
Maybe they thought it was an NC-10. It is very similar to the S-43, the difference being the two berries to the right of the T in CENT. On S-43...
So did Charlotte and Dahlonega. Not to as great an extent but both countries used the mints to strike coins.
Collectors WANT these???
Only if it is far enough off that part of the design is missing.
I can say definitely not NC-5. On NC-5 the first inner berry on the right wreath branch is just above the level of the top of the T in CENT, way...
OK it sounds like what you want is a list of THE variety book for each series. I can give you some of them and some alternates. Hopefully some...
They are not missing, they just aren't where you expect them to be. Numismedia treats those dates before and after the 1853 - 56 period to be...
