And that can spell only one thing... LAWSUITS!!! Delicious, nutritious lawsuits!
You're free to think that, but I would strongly advise reading FedEx's insurance conditions before attempting to insure coins. I'd advise reading...
Those stars and that date don't look right to me. :(
-25th birthday commemorative? :)
You may well be right. I decided I didn't like the speculative odds. By returning my five coins, I suppose I helped lower the total mintage for...
Ah, one of those charts. :) The sticker-changers might have been pretty busy between August 2007 and October 2008 -- but that's 14 months, and...
Okay, now I feel better about my initial reaction to @ldhair's first coin. It's hard to imagine putting in the effort required to counterfeit...

Some of those spots look pretty black. Are you figuring you need to dip it to stop further corrosion? I like the general look. It makes sense to...
I've lived all my life on the East Coast. When I was a kid searching penny rolls, I almost never found S-mint cents -- I might have found two or...
I figured it was just the lousy underprovisioned network that I was on, but it's apparently widespread:...
Yep, it's against eBay policy, which says "no counterfeit coins". Previously it said "no copy coins unless they're stamped COPY in conformance...
Hammer/vise job? Incuse and reversed makes it look like another coin was pressed into it.
Some of the State Quarters have a lot of field space -- Wyoming comes to mind, although "uncluttered fields" is about the only nice thing I can...
