Probably 38B, as I see the crack left of the first right star, too.
Yes. I won't go as far as saying it's more likely than not, but a fresh roll from the mint will probably have at most 3 die pairs. I have a roll...
79-O, 80-O, and 81-O come well struck. Don't be led into paying extra for one of these just because the strike is decent. It's not until 1883 when...
Wow! $9200 is not unreasonable for that. I've shot images of a high end collection of this kind stuff that this would be a centerpiece for....
Looks like you have strike doubling on the bottom of the 2.
It's not the big one, but you should look to see if it's any of the minor DDOs. There are 10 different DDOs, including the one that's obvious....
Uh, that's a 20-S. You realize that mistaking a 64 for a 65 is a $300,000 mistake on that date, right? ;) To respond to your initial question,...

OK, then "submitting" it by trading it to a dealer for a coin in his show submission will leave you less buried in your show souvenir than had you...
If all you want is a label, then find a dealer who is submitting these in large enough quantities to get the lower rate. They want 70s, and will...
Clash mark from bottom of wreath.
I think PCGS go it right. The obverse looks like it had been whizzed (look at the distortion on the ribbon) and then smoothed out by polishing...
Ouch. That 14-D lost a fight with an eraser.
I've been keeping people on the new VAMWorld discussion board updated with what's going on regarding the sun setting on Wikispaces and the...
F15.
Well, considering one of the board has instructions, "Clean your specimens with a soft eraser or a little vinegar before placing them in the...
Not her fingers. She's holding someone else's severed hand. (No, not really.)
I tend to keep coin stuff off my desk at work, but I have been known to be typing in a keyboard under pieces of paper and other office debris.
Just picked up a nice 1723 Wood's Hibernia Farthing. I think I now have 4 coins for the 1723 slot of my prime number set (Rosa 1p, 2p, this guy,...
This is pretty much the standard look of a 1950, unless you want a cameo, and even some of those have somewhat shallow mirrors.
