The last photo does look like the near date variety 1979-P. Although the coin is scratched, it's still a keeper.
I prefer the rim, even though it's worth less, because then you can tell it was supposed to be a coin and not just some slug. I also have 1 copper...
So, I was trying to figure out the face value of this 2000 bolivar note. Really interesting stuff when you research it. Currently the bolivar is...
Nickels are 75% copper. If you dug it up, it's just environmental damage. There aren't really copper nickels as the copper and nickel are alloyed...
I was going to say Mongolia, but I didn't know. It was just a guess. My thinking was the image looked Mongolian. The lettering was difficult. I...
Is this a business model you are interested in pursuing?
IDK but that's a keeper.
If it weighs 3.1 it's copper if it weighs 2.5 it's zinc. Not sure what you are trying to say. Yes a zinc cent that weighs 3.09 grams would be an...
So in this case specimen means what? TY And Endeavor what country is represented in post #5286? TY
I doubt the ATM measures the alignment. But I stopped using ATM's 25 years ago after I got my 1st monthly fee for my card. After using them free...
I answered this question a long time ago in this thread far,far away.
The weight can be between 2.98-3.24. Yes the weight of a copper cent is 3.11g and yours weighs 3.09g. That slight difference has no bearing. A...
Very nice. Canadian silver on my coin star bucket list along with a mercury dime.
There's a huge difference between 3.9 and 3.09. 3.09 is close to the exact weight it should be. 3.9 is not in tolerance, which is +/- .13 from...
Like the chocolate and I was also at AU. But I don't think those minor scratches will affect the grade. What is that spot on the cheek? I have...
I held some 40%ers for a few years. But at the time silver was so low, they were worth about 70 cents each and I spent them at face. I think it...
Is that the first $25 coin the mint has made?
No reason to counterfeit a 25 cent coin. The 1937-D three legged Buffalo probably has more fakes than real coins.
Well when they roll the planchet, how many coins do they punch out of it? And who knows how many thin planchets they rolled out, before they...
I wouldn't be selling a Type 2 1979-S SBA at a garage sale. Or is it the 1981? That's even more valuable. As for "uncirculated", except for the...
Separate names with a comma.
