Based on the photo, I'd say you shot like one, too. Fantastic!
In the middle photo, that line around the rim makes me think "cast fake". I'd love to see an accurate weight, or better yet a specific gravity...
There's no living to be made at it, but it's hard to find a better deal than "spend $100 and get at least $100 worth of coins, sometimes...

Ew.
Not true. There is no market for $500 low-res photos of this coin, or $2200 pairs of photos of AGEs. The only way these sales proceed is by...
Listing them in a coin category? "Search and Browse Manipulation".
Which one do you have in mind? I'm drawing a blank -- all I can think of from 1915 is the Pan-Pac, and other than having a standing figure on the...
