I think I'm all out of coins that I haven't posted before. I bought this as plain MS60 in an ICCS holder. Much later I found that it is the short...
I'll sign up for the 1959 Franklin proof. I don't have a proof Franklin and would like to see what one looks like. Not to mention that it's my...
Oh brother. Haven't they been yacking about the gold having been spirited away for decades now?
Everybody has a duh moment once in a while. At least you properly called it No S instead of that silly "no mint mark" stuff.
Same bucket. I have never sold a single coin. I don't really buy that many either, compared to a lot of people. It seems like I just have coins,...
I'm curious why you would think that's a proof coin minted in SF instead of one of the 424,470,400 1968 dimes minted in Philadelphia. Short answer...
I was thrown off because the 2nd coin appears to have another crack in the field under the date, but it seems to be a scratch not a crack.
Finally imaged this one a few weeks ago, kinda crusty, bought as "Unc" when I was a kid. [ATTACH]
Nice coins! My Barber grades are all over the place. I did end up with several quarters in AU58 though, which was a good price point for my...
Makes me wonder if they mixed the tolerances for proof and business strikes together. Something like business is .008mm, proof is .017mm, and...
As a guppy, it was an eye-opening experience for me. I had no idea who Roger was at the time, and when I was banned, the president accused me of...
From that image it looks like a retained struck-through. But I think my brain is flipping it from incuse to raised because of the shadows along...
Have you looked at the PCGS gallery? There's one that matches yours pretty closely (third one down)....
I guess I should look at my change more carefully. When I see a shield cent I toss it in the jar without a second thought. More fun for somebody...
I don't quite understand this - "Plating Thickness: 0.008 mm + 0.017 mm/-0.003 mm (0.0003 inches +.0007/-.0001 inches)” quoted from the mint. It's...
I was on CU for a while but got banned along with Roger Burdette for criticizing their designation of a 1942 experimental cent as "high relief",...
You could take it out of the 2x2 and get precise measurements of diameter, thickness, and weight, and images of the edge. But I don't think it's a...
The early photographs I referenced above were from The Early Coins of America, Sylvester S. Crosby 1875. Just thought I would follow up. From the...
It's been a lot longer than that. Researching the 1652 NE threepence that surfaced 5-6 years ago, I recall finding photos of someone's coins from...
I think their stated listing policy has always been for show, and listening to people like you to actually remove listings was also a token...
Separate names with a comma.
