Weight difference won't be significant. From the picture I'd say it is either plated or a genuine non-plated cent. I don't think it is a...
Because the magazines and newspapers buy paper and sell magazines, and newspapers, and advertising, not coins.
Very good, If the letters are incuse on the coin then they were raised on the die. And they have broken off the die.
Don't feel like a noob in fact anything but. I am definitely not a noob, but I can't decide on one book either. In fact since I am into so many...
I looked at some of his early halves and I believe they are real, but I believe they have been cleaned, which isn't unusual, but some of them are...
Question comes up fairly regularly. Answer is still the same, no good reason. Yes it has the lowest mintage but only by a tiny amount an the...

Weight?

No because I don't follow the Fugios closely. I would think the new Newman book is probably up to date with the possible exception of the most...
There are a few more varieties known now, (A new one was discovered just a few months ago.) but it is still pretty close to 24.
One, the fractional buffalos haven't been on sale that long. Two, when they went on sale the collectors were ticked and the premium over spot....
Yes, but I didn't have the pictures, just text. That can be a big disadvantage. I had discarded the Obv 16 because my text description for it...
