No, I was not wrong. Do you think that the US Mint is the only one that uses the same processes ? Most of the mints in the world follow the same...
Think for a minute, use your head. They want the planchets to all reach the same temperature. If they were piled on top of one another in drum...
Those are annual mint sets issued by the French mint from 1964 to 1997. The mintage I have listed in Gadoury (the French version of the Red Book)...
You're kind of mixing things up here now. Your original question was if chatter could be caused by the annealing process. And that answer to that...
Yeah they got tumbled around, but not until after they came out of the annealing furnace.
And John, metal flow does not cause or create any chatter on the coin. Metal flow usually removes all chatter that is on the planchet. And yes,...

If you really want to test what happens you need to put each coin in it's own separate coin envelope. Then store them all in the same place. You...
It depends because locations change all the time depending on what show it is. There's a few that are always in the same town/city, but some are...
They may have been making strong offers because they are getting ready to do a promotion. That happens from time with silver dollars.
I used to own several boxed sets like that when I still collected. Just be aware, the boxes are what I would call semi-original as they (the boxes...
From what I have seen age doesn't matter. I know guys in their late 70's and 80's that buy on-line and YNs that buy at coin shows and dealer...
