You're right, they didn't. But can you describe or post pics of the set you're talking about ? As suggested, it could be nothing more than a date...

You can find it by opening your eyes and just looking around. In other words the evidence is all around you and always has been. But you do have...
I believe Kasia just did that. If you wish to know all of the details regarding the dies used to strike all of the 1909 cents I'm pretty sure can...
Yeah, some might be, but I'm pretty sure there are some who simply deny that it is and has been happening. Many believe that you simply cannot...
For the coins you posted pictures of, I'd just leave them alone. As I explained before, rinsing some coins in acetone is just a waste of time...
If you do it right - no. What I am saying is this. It is possible to dip copper and cause some pitting. But it is not a certainty that dipping...

Hmmmm - where to begin ? OK, I guess I'll start off with saying basically the same thing most of you have been saying, but I'll be a little more...
That specific coin, I only carried in my pocket for 7 years. But it was merely the last example in a line of them. To answer your question - yes,...
For what it's worth, I can't see anything that makes me thing any of those 3 coins have been harshly cleaned. That does not mean they have not...
Give that man the cigar !! I think my son was about 8 when I took him to his first coin show - and I took 4 of his friends with him, boys and...
