This has to be the latest in the year I've gotten a current year quarter in change. Saw a fresh Loomis roll also in the register and figured there...
All I have are a couple tie clips with replica coins. Lame. [ATTACH]
Since the composition was 5% tin and zinc, I wonder if the silver-colored area is a hunk of tin or zinc that did not mix into the alloy properly?...
I wonder if the zinc is rotting from within and pushing up the plating.
Wide AM but it's listed as "common" so value might not be much. What's up with Abe's lips?
Hard to predict but my hunch is that the people who paid outrageous amounts for toned and lowball coins are going to be disappointed in the long...
You could look here....
I've compiled a list of what responders consider overhyped. Some had multiple and I may have missed some. Error coins Toned coins Small...
Just a quick note on your "final answer" - in 1942, 1942-D and 1942-S there are far too many of them for it to have been something done to a...
It's a cool error. The few quarters on Heritage with the same error all sold for under $100, so it seems to be a losing proposition for all those...
I hadn't looked at 1943 much but just now in the PCGS gallery I quickly found half a dozen where "whatever it is" is pretty clearly identical...
I suspect mainly it's that they have permission, or are interpreting the clause in copyright law "for educational purposes" as giving them...
It may take me a while to do a comprehensive reply, but in the meanwhile go look at 1942 and 1942-D on GC archives. It's a gold mine of evidence....
Technically it's both post mint damage and post-Ming damage.
Hmm, not sure how cool, but how about an American Legion School Award, original Whole Earth catalog (lots of hippie stuff in there), and some...
I attribute that to the Barbers being the workhorse of the daily economy, whereas Morgans sat in bank vaults by the millions. So "never cared for...
Maybe what I'm saying is too heretical or too nonsensical? Would circling certain features from my images on the previous page help? Look at the...
I think the Wyoming one is the worst. All they did was put their license plate logo on the coin.
Double struck and doubled die are completely different things. It seems like you're conflating the two. If there is no offset, I don't see how...
Collectors have poo-pooed the Barbers probably since their inception. Which is why there is so much left to discover in the series. I don't...
Separate names with a comma.
