What I'm getting from this is that experts still don't all agree on the terminology. I'll let them (you) sort it out, and not worry about it...
Only if the chromium has a nickel underlayer, right? Chromium itself isn't ferromagnetic.
Clearly!
I had to go to our bank for some in-person business last week, and I asked about half dollars. They had quite a lot. I took four rolls. Nothing --...
Nice piece! Shame about the corrosion. :troll:
And as far as guilt over hoarding 1950-D nickels, given their price trajectory over the years, I'd say "nope". The 1965 Red Book lists them at...
US population: ~300M 1% of 300M = 3M 0.1% of 300M = 300K 0.05% of 300M = 150K No conclusions, just in a mood to pick about arithmetic ;)
Is this a generally-accepted definition, or just yours? I'm thinking specifically of the 1937-D Buffalo variety FS-901.
Look at the screenshot from the Mint I posted earlier.
Don't hate the player, hate the Mint. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] OURS. ARE. CALLED. PENNIES. By the organization that produces them, no less. I wish we...
No worries, your main point was spot on.
Seconded. Also, don't forget to use a covered container, as acetone evaporates very quickly. If you need to use something with a plastic lid,...
Not all. The shop I used to frequent basically only looked for CC mint marks. I picked up a worn but problem-free 1895-O there for the same price...
I'm with you. Face value alone is an awful lot to tie up in an item like this. I'd love to have a $500 or $1000 note, but not enough to tie up...
Look at the 9. Yours bears no resemblance to a real coin. Mmm.
I'm not sure that would be cost-effective. An acetone soak really isn't difficult or dangerous at all (as long as you keep fire away), and a quart...
I would've been all over those, too! Outstanding score!
The only reverse photo I see has so much glare in that region that I wouldn't expect to see it. Am I missing a second photo?
And while we're at it, you m@#*($ #@(!ing @*#$&s need to watch your language.
Yep. I remember looking into these a few years ago. I think something like a third of all 1909-S halves have the inverted S.
Separate names with a comma.
