And the brass plated cents can be found on any date since 1982 from both P and D mints.
As the others have said the 98 is a WAM and the 95 quarter is just discolored. As to whether or not you are an idiot, I don't know you well...
Yes, with a tolerance of +/- .23 grams. So 5.9 grams is within tolerance for a plated normal state quarter.
The cotton boils (I think that is what they are) at the ends of the wreath are made up of individual round "dots" that are linked together. When...
I've never seen minor clips have any effect on value for the early copper. I don't know too many people who collect "perfect" early copper. I'm...
I haven't looked at the S-133 so I don't know what the condition was, but While it is listed as an R-5, it seems to be a "common" R-5. I've seen...
I strongly suspect it is a fake but I can't put my finger on why. Everything lines up to be a C-13 but something just doesn't look right. The...
Back before the 1973 Hobby Protection Act the letter T on a coin was another way of marking a coin as a copy, especially for European made copies....
Several Proof Conder tokens from the 1780's. Sorry no pictures available.
That doesn't make much sense. Why would they desire canceled mint dies when they could get tool steel rod much cheaper. The reason they stopped...
Why? The amount for copper and nickel consumed in the US Coins is a minuscule amount compared to the countries annual consumption of those two...
You can keep the Red and the Red brown. I prefer a nice Brown copper if I can get it.
Sorry that wouldn't come close. Those 1996 Olympic dies with the X cancel are expensive
But will it still be that nice after the mint gets done with it? Lowers the releif, shinks it down so theu can put UNITED STATES OF AMERICA 1 OZ...
Now that they have stopped selling coin and die sets I would imagine the grind the face off and then sell them as scrap metal. Whether they do it...
"You paid WHAT for that???" "What can I say? Some of us are just fascinated by small shiny objects."
There are a few cases. Back in 1999 a Sac dollar accidentally got out in a bag of state quarters a few weeks before the official release. It was...
Two problems. Is it the same McCarthy's Jewlers? And the token doesn't say how MUCH it increases each year. After 80 years it may just be $10 . :)
I agree with Marshall, state IV. It is definitely later than the state III piece pictured in Breen but it is earlier than the State V shown where...
Actually they can demonitize them that easily. They change them from time to time because of counterfeiting and for other reasons. I would...
Separate names with a comma.
