LOL I know what crossed pool cues look like. I still see a random "X" caused by an unknown tool with a very slightly wedge-shaped cross-section....
I do like the two-headed type.
True, they are tapered a bit. I'm not sure that convinces me completely, but... good point.
Don't enter me, but it looks like a fun giveaway. Thanks for the hat tip. Back at you! When Statehood quarters came out, the gold-plated ones...
I see a random "X", but if you like to interpret those as pool cues, hey, why not?
Looks very prooflike but I have my doubts about it being an actual proof. Nice coin, regardless. Submit it! FWIW, I've never owned an Isabella...
The poll cracked me up. As stated, a 1992 cent should not be magnetic unless coated in steel.
Yes, that one with the shields is great. But probably tough. (?) (Edit: sold for $165? Not bad! Not bad at all!) The eagle CONSECRATIO is one...
Indeed.
You're not the first to be confused over this, and you won't be the last. You're looking, and taking an interest, which is the main thing....

That's really neat!

Sounds interesting. I hadn't heard of such errors, but would love to see pictures of them. The numismatic term is spelled "planchet", BTW. A...

Now that's a sweet circulation find!
If the Pillar dollar sells to a cash buyer this weekend. If my potential swap partner still has that on Monday, though, it might just be...
I know exactly what you mean. Some coins have a slightly "macho" appeal to them. The Teutonic Order piece above definitely has a martial...
How about another wild card? To the next player: USA, 1906, or any elongated coin. (If you play an elongate, though, it needs to have a readable...
That old $20 is cool. Been a while since I've seen one. I found a 1934 $5 one time. That's the oldest bill I've gotten out of circulation.
Separate names with a comma.
