Board repair on a 25-30-year-old device? You have my attention! I don't have good enough time-management skills to seriously volunteer help, but...
Wow! Zinc or copper?
That's because there is no answer. I mean, you could've made money by swapping gold for silver when the ratio was 120-something, and then swapping...
I was surprised I didn't recognize that car, then saw the date on the bottom. By 1974 I'd moved on from Hot Wheels to the chemistry set. :)
Those premiums are much lower than premiums from big dealers at the moment. They're low enough to trip my "possibly too good to be true" alarms....
Huh. I would've thought hardening a die would've been a fairly minor challenge in the counterfeiting process.
It looks like the big dealers are still getting their asking prices. If inventory starts piling up, they'll drop premiums.
The odds are pretty high. It's just environmental damage. You were right to spend yours.
The reverse looks like it was eaten away by acid. If it were worn down to start, then plopped onto something corrosive, this is what I'd expect to...
Saw something leaning on edge in the CoinStar reject slot at Food Lion this evening, along with a Zincoln. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] Left the Zincoln...
How many is that?
One cent and five cent gold pieces!
For that matter, I'm thinking there's still a reasonable chance that someone, 150 years down the road, would drool over the thought of a nice...
Sorry, I'm distracted at the thought of a bag containing thousands of freshly-struck trimes. :greedy: I'll have to check eBay completed auctions...
Heck, just flip the coin across a gap surrounded by bright lights and high-speed cameras, then reconstruct the coin's surface detail by analyzing...
Sure they will. Their robots will earn it for them. :rolleyes:
I thought zinc cent blanks were plated after being punched, and that both steps were done before delivery to the Mint? I'm not seeing how this...
"To style" in the sense of "to name" is a long-established usage. I still occasionally see it in the form "self-styled".
I don't know, still looks like toning to me. I've seen that sort of toning pattern on plenty of 40% halves. As to "why", it might be uneven...
Standardized spelling wasn't always such a big thing. No less a luminary than Noah Webster though it should be "stile" rather than "style".
Separate names with a comma.
