Interesting that there's a Dansco just for the WL short set. Here's where I'd get a blank album and fill it with business strike halves...
I got dinged on one because of a planchet flaw once, and it had a similar black mark as what I see by the claw, although more unsightly....
Whatever interests you and engages you most is the way to go. That said, there's often another problem with the last year of mintage besides...
$15 shipped in the US. All books in excellent condition. 1994 is hardcover, 2004 is spiral. CPG signed by Stanton, Fivaz, and Mike Ellis.
Well, there's this: 50-coin Classic Commem type set I'm also in the Franklin Dansco club. This makes a great YN set. [ATTACH]
Dip it. The haze should come off, and you should have a much more attractive coin. The spots on the portrait may or may not come off. Don't...
Ah, right! So I guess the question is whether the coin is bronze (~ 12% tin) or contains 12% zinc. One of the labels is then incorrect.
I'd only be speculating if I tried to come up with an answer, but they also didn't specify the color with the grade on the 88/12 slab.
If I consider business strikes, proofs, commemoratives, and modern NCLT, I think I would always consider less than 500 to be low mintage, and I...
If it were mine, I'd have it graded, but would send it with enough other coins to minimize the shipping and handling overhead. Looks like an AU53.
I would not have bought it. For starters the obverse and reverse are on the wrong sides.
Because getting 3 grams of copper for 1 cent is a better deal than 3.75 grams for 5 cents or 2.1 grams for 10 cents.
The bigger issue is dealing with the glare from the slab. For exposure, I always set the exposure manually and check the histogram to make sure...
The only way to get them done for free is to write the grade on them yourself, but there's relatively little market acceptance of that compared...
It doesn't have the look of a reprocessed cent. Those typically look really shiny, with a sloppy, gunky plating layer on an underlying VF coin....
XF. The weakness on the right side of the coin is not wear.
Put an SBA in the Carter slot. That coin was unofficially (and derisively) called the "Carter Quarter."
Dip it, rinse well, then it would make a good coin for a Dansco album. The black spots will leave scars, but not as bad as the spots themselves....
Doesn't look like it according to this website.
If you are shipping with any significant value frequently, look into an insurance policy that covers shipping, rather than buying insurance for...
