I think it's a broad strike but need the weight to know. As to your question, look how wide the rim is. A quarter is only 3mm wider than a nickel.
No need to do that. Just take it a jewelry store and ask them to weigh it for you - to within the closest 1/100 gram, as in x.xx grams and report...
I'd say VF25, old cleaning and re-toned.
Sorry, not unc. Both appear to be AU.
Personally I would say AU50 because of the amount of wear. I think PCGS said AU55.
Ask all the questions you want Keith, we actually like answering them ;) There's one more thing we need to know though to answer this question...
There's a bit more to it than that. The '21-S (coin in your link) is known to be weakly struck. The '38-D is not. There's a whole list of these...
What is the weight of the coin ? If it is the same as a quarter then it would be a wrong planchet error. If it is the same as a nickel then it is...
Looks like someone was just playing around trying to drive an old fashioned cut nail through the coin.
Depends on what you are trying to do. If you are trying to remove PVC from the coin to prevent further damage - then yes go ahead and do so....
True, but only a few states were sovereign nations, at one time or another, before becoming states.
Toad - the original statement was - Nobody but you ever said a word about what they were at the exact time they became a state - merely that...
No Toad, Utah did not become a territory in 1848. That's merely when the US acquired title to the land. Either way, you need to read a bit more...
Feel free to ask anything, anytime you want zeke ;)
The 3rd one kinda looks like it either has a scuff mark across the obv or something was spilled on the coin.
I do indeed :whistle:
Well, if there is a depression there then maybe I am correct.
A house quarter - for use in a bar. I like the red ones better ;)
It's the second coin I am talking about. This is a good example of how deceiving pics can be. In the second pic, it just looks like a brown spot....
The big hole right in the middle of his head. Kinda looks like a dinosaur footprint. Like I said, I'm betting it's a strike through.
