I think @micbraun nailed it when he said it was there simply to add to your NGC registry set. That’s it in a nutshell.
Hi Kristina and welcome to the forum. Hard to tell from your photos but it appears the rim or edge of your cent is raised. If it is then I would...
Oh heavens.... I am not a big player at all. And I like your thought. I agree that high end investor type coins have performed well...... See,...
I'm in no hurry at all. Much as it pains me.... I am just going to stop buying silver for a spell. Probably a good time to do that anyway.
It is funny you mention this. I recently (last week) acquired a nice coin and saw the very same thing. I am not an NGC member and don't mind...

Sincerely.... I need some education here please...... I enjoy this series and thought I had a reasonable handle on grade considering I am a...
Hint.... The ladies at my bank go ga-ga for a box of donuts...;)
Hi Merrianne and welcome to the forum. The Cheerios dollar is an oddity that does have some true value to it. The mint created a new die and the...
Nice wheat cent to start a collection with. But if Paddy don’t see it, it’s not there.
Sure hate to be a bummer but @BRandM is absolutely correct. Those are fantasy pieces and not US minted coins.
All good info. And coins can easily be removed from a bezel simply by turning the tiny bezel set screw near the pendent where the chain loops...
