That one is a toss up. For me, with all things being equal I would opt for the 1876 without the hole if I were going to admire it in my 7070.
I am happy to hear that. I believe Ike's are long overdue to awake from their slumber.
I would agree..... I have something of a contemporary 1916-D counterfeit dime. It is actually very well done (added D). I use it to plug the hole...
Agree with @Parthicus and do believe this one can be attributed to the Byzantine era which could make it from 700 to about 1700 years old. It's...
I like @JeffC solution. I think a simple Dremel tool would get the job done as well.
I haven’t done it yet but have the very same thought process. I carry different coins to my office to enjoy during the stress of the day. I had...
Ripped open?? That does need to be reported.
I sure didn’t know that. Makes me feel much better about the whole thing. Awesome info.
You would know if it were the real deal.... I know that the genuine 55 DD has already been posted. I just like to have an excuse to post mine......

Hi DJ’s mom. My I extend my best wishes to you while you battle your cancer. The 1878 Morgan is the fist year of issue and is a year rife with...
I have been a non-focused collector for fifty years. The only organization I have in my collection is that they are 99% US coins.
That may be best. A twenty cent in that shape would be devastating to damage unintentionally. But the caveat to that is you could potentially...
What a fine collection! I love it. Sure does remind me of my fascination with all the history these coins held when I was a young man.
I agree with @baseball21. Embarrassingly I have five state quarter sets each in different books. The Dansco set really looks sharp. It is actually...
In the end I believe that I was the winner because I had the pleasure of enjoying everyone’s favorite coins..... But alas a victor must be...
Entries are all in. I’ll tabulate and check my list twice. And winners will be posted after I have my coffee to avoid any boo-boos.
Doctor Who?? Is it really you???
