Per PCGS Photograde: Here is G4. [IMG] Here is G6. [IMG] Here is VG8. [IMG] So G6 is, by comparison with these examples, actually pretty...
Full rims there, and just a little bit of headband with the L in Liberty showing. That's solid G4 territory, and arguably G6. A lot of the G4...
There's a link right there in the OP. It's on eBay. At $162.50 as of this post, with 1 day and 17 hours left. I would be surprised if it closed...
... or, considering I just accidentally posted two cornucopias in a row without realizing it, we could go with that theme. Scantily-clad ladies...
I'd say continue with anchors, but we've done that. Let's switch to scantily-clad ladies. ;) Not necessarily nudes. Gauzy drapery works, too....
Another anchor. This one is not mine... yet. But it might become mine within the next 24-48 hours or so, depending on the response to the email...
PS- in PCGS plastic with a straight grade, it would list for $550 in G4, $650 in G6, and $800 in VG8, so this is definitely one of those coins...
I personally see it as a G6 to borderline VG8. Some minor surface issues, but I think it has a reasonably decent chance at a straight-grade if...
@dwhiz- this one made me think of you, for some reason. ;) It's being auctioned by a seller I believe is the artist himself. I have not done...
Here's the CoinFacts plate coin, by way of comparison. Note in particular the difference between the date numerals on the counterfeit in the...
What @Evan8 and @Omegaraptor said. A blatant fake, most definitely "Made in China". Sticks out like a sore thumb. Sorry.
BTW, I did have a SevAlex in my original Roman collection. Ugly and horn silver, but it cost me less than ten bucks, and didn't seem bad at all...
Congrats, @Curtisimo, et al!
Ha! I had just copied and was about to paste what appears to be the same coin! [IMG]
Ditto. Welcome.
Actually, the way your photo is rotated, the 8 is on top of the 5. ;) Seriously, though- what @paddyman98 said. It is damaged, not an error.
Yes, those Kennedy counterstamps (and others with state outlines and such) were popular novelties sold to the general public when I was a novice...
Interesting that it sticks to a magnet. Either it's a 1976-D cent that got steel-plated somehow (outside the mint- this is not any kind of mint...
Yes. What @MontCollector said.
Doesn't look anything like silver. I guess you're seeing zinc, from where the copper plating was lost when the coin got damaged. These modern...
