Nope. 'Fraid neither of these are worth anything, except that they got you interested. That's something, anyway, right? Keep on lookin', and...
But those are proofs. Are all the 1922 high relief Peace dollars matte proofs? (I forgot there was even such a thing as a proof Peace dollar....
Thank you. I was at a loss to provide specifics and pictures for this. But what about the "high relief versus low relief" question?
Wow, that cloud chariot is terrific! So much going on, there! Gives me a slight pang of seller's remorse for one of my Eclectic Box pieces I let...
That one's also been machined, but in a different way. The rim has been squashed down. It got rolled through some piece of machinery. Some...
Is the bow tie doubled, is that what you mean? Looks like a typical 1993-D Lincoln cent to me.
I didn't see it at first, but can (barely) see it now. My only guess would be that it may be some remaining trace of the coin's original...
This is a good question, and it is difficult to answer in an easily explainable way. All 1921 Peace dollars were struck in high relief, while...
I'm not sure what a " ^$/¥£₩÷" is. LOL. ;) It's been machined, for some reason, with a lathe or similar piece of equipment. This is PMD...

I've got an NGC Ancients submission I mailed off on Saturday, 8/12, so I fully expect it'll almost be fall by the time it gets back to me.
Some kind of tool of that nature, I'd reckon. Yep. PMD.
Yes, that tradition goes back centuries, though to my knowledge, I am not aware of it having been done so much here in the South. Maybe, but...
I think what you're seeing as "wear" is in fact weak strike. It can certainly be difficult to distinguish light rub from weak strike sometimes,...
I certainly agree! Welcome.
My unencapsulated Seljuq did not get a TrueView, but Phil sent me the image of it. It has "CoinFacts" in the filename, so evidently it may become...
Here you go: [IMG] And here is @Ed Snible's Celtic coin, in the full-sized picture: [IMG]
This Troas, Birytis bronze with Kabeiros on it was about 8mm, as I recall. [IMG] These were pretty tiny, too, but I can't recall offhand if they...
Meiji 16 (1883) Japan 1-rin. [IMG] So 1883 or Japan, next.
Hardee's drive-thru. :) I agree- that's an eight-cent find at best, but eh, who cares. It was fun to find. I used to get War nickels fairly...
