Looks like a 1916 partial date to me. I'd expect a shop to try to get fifty cents if they were selling it. I don't think they'd want to buy it...
Well, if he's on YouTube, he must know what he's talking about... :rolleyes:
The "Item specifics" section on eBay listings can be pretty useless. The "Denomination" field in "specifics" only allows you to select one value,...
As it turns out, actual factual astronomers are on the case, apparently: https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.3847/1538-4357/aaa975 Even the...
Thirty years -- wow. I wasn't even 30 when the Wall fell, but it still feels vaguely surprising to think of it. I remember Dennis Miller's take...
Gravitational lensing. If there's a massive object between us and the distant galaxy, it bends the light coming from that galaxy, and we see the...
Like I've said many times before here, heraldic eagles have never done anything for me. Our national symbol should be pictured in flight or in a...
I thought you were talking about proofs? :troll:
I don't see cherry-picking as speculation...?
It, um, has to do with the topic of this thread, which led him to post here?

Honestly, to me, it just looks like "a scuff". Something dragged across the coin's surface after it was struck, hard enough to leave a track. If...
I think they're bag marks, caused by contact between coins during transport, which break the luster. If that's true, they'd change from bright to...
I haven't looked for this myself, but if there are such sources, I'd be really interested in learning about them.
In that case, they'd be bright marks instead of dark marks under some lighting angles, right?
Are the "dark marks" dark from all angles, or are they brighter or darker than the rest of the coin depending on light and viewing angle?
Not to threadjack, but yeah: [MEDIA]
Poor Google, it tries so hard to be helpful, and then... [ATTACH] :hilarious:
While the coin doesn't look corroded, it does look worn. I wonder if it could have lost some weight to corrosion at some point, then gotten enough...
Looks almost like someone removed an S... :troll:
Separate names with a comma.
