I'm always happy to get customer wrapped coins. When you hit...you hit!!
I thought I'd offer this for consideration, so I apologize in advance for this different, and off-topic, comment: Here in the West, we are raised...
I notice on some coins of this vintage that along the profile of the bust you can see what looks like a hand engraver was used to sharpen the...
The reverse it true after checking. It's a greaser: "A weak strike will show a poorly developed or absent design rim. A grease strike will show a...
The 2009D totals are climbing much faster than I would have guessed. Interesting. Nice greaser by the way. Both sides is not that common in my...
Nice early Lincolns folks!! Love that chocolate brown toning Razz!! This is a bit of a distance shot, but what I had on my phone.[ATTACH]
Nice find. As alurid states, the engraving for the master changed from time-to-time (as it did in 1969) thus why the look of Lincoln and the...
Correct. Not an error. Common wear-and-tear for a die in service. Some cracks are better than others. A full picture of the coin would give a...
Yeah, it's a misnomer (MD or even DDD). It may date itself back to the Poor Man's Doubleddie of 1955 (which is DDD). The very way a DD is made...
Those 1955 Ps are tough to find. I only discovered that there were two obverse conditions once I started looking at putting a roll of them...
Finding S and D mint specimens is harder on the East Coast...but not impossible. Especially for nickels (and more so on silver war nickels)....
If you CRH enough, you'll find many impaired proofs. Usually the proof is liberated because of a spot or other environmental issue, but some are...
I don't think so. A picture of the RTY would be beneficial. But the thickness looks normal and normally discernable in a worn state.
Incredible - a full roll! I think that the site host might like to learn about your more significant rotated coins. It looks to be a 'labor of...
I agree with Lehigh - AU58. The heavier nicks are indicative of bag damage on an MS coin but the surface abbrasions are indicative of time spent...
Here's a site for rotated coinage (it's incomplete and a work inprogress as I understand): http://rotateddies.50webs.com/census.htm Nice finds!!
OK - work on those pictures. You'll need crisper shots for us to do a diagnostic for you. Tips for taking pic's - Find a heavy object of an...
I agree with our fellow enthusiasts: damaged. Possibly two events. Partially done in a washer/dryer (worn reverse) and a vise to flatten the rim.
That is a fine looking coin!! I agree with our fellow enthusiasts: max'ed out. I'd actually be worried CAC would go lower.
Thanks Larry. Folks can build a complete set from CRH and pocket finds (Jefferson Nickels). The reality is that by the 3rd or 4th box, a...
