Call it 64, no FBL.
I don't know enough about these to make a judgement as to authenticity. I will say, however, that if it is real, the coin appears to have been...
I personally prefer the 50. I've always thought it looked kinda like a cousin to the St. Gaudens DE.
The weight and fineness of coins was mandated by law. The Red Book does an excellent job of summarizing the specs for each coin. I suggest every...
What's going on in the field in front of his nose? There are a lot of bagmarks on that coin. Strike looks average, luster is decent. The reverse...

I guarantee you they are each worth at least 5 cents. Granted, that won't get you very much these days.....
Toning is not damage until it has gone too far - and then it is often considered damage. The toning on that coin is thick and black, unattractive,...
By "machine damage" I'm assuming they are referring to something like counting wheel damage. This is often displayed as very fine hairlines, and...
