Color wise, my preference is for the 1909, but that is a well struck 1945. Great pictures, BTW.
Yes, but I am talking about coins.
Those are very nice coins. I would love all you can GIVE me. However, they are way over my price line.
It is even worse than that. Most impurities in water are salts - the stuff that stays on coins and then reacts with coins. At least when I was...
If you are talking about a Lincoln (I don't know what else it could be), 25¢ to 50¢.
I am a coin collector, not a Jules Reiver collector. To me, the holder is worth next to nothing. If you want to collect slabs, go for it. If...
Let's start by wacking some of your cost. To reholder a coin is $5 (unless you want their new scratch resistant holder). Lincolns are...
Your wife/mother has been using it on her fingers for decades. The most dangerous thing I know about it is it is very flammable. I should be...
In at least most instances, no one will ever be able to tell that anything has been done to the coin by the acetone. In theory, anyway, if you...
Thank you. I am glad someone finally agrees with me. I think people may be very surprised at how impure their "distilled" water really is.
Congratulations to you, but I would sure like to know how they came up with that grade. Apparently they ignore the blistering (or whatever the...
This one I know is congratulations. I cannot believe I was the closest to their grade with a 64.
Hey, louie, you did a good job of sizing my date image from the op's picture. I overlaid you picture on itself and played with the opacity (I...
I read that, but you still got a lower grade. From your comment, I gather the idea was to get the star and the grade be @#$@#.
I have no idea how you can be sure about either the 7 or the 9, but the "skinny" 0 is a small date. The S mintmark is totally immaterial. This...
I don't know. Am I supposed to offer my sympathy or congratulations?
That is about as bad as I have seen.
Good luck!
You are talking semantics. After it is struck. Therefore, it is damage. It is worth 1¢.
It happened after it left the mint. Hence, post mint. It is a damaged cent and worth 1¢.
