If you get a hanging for that, I'd really hate to see what happens if you say double die instead of doubled!
There has been some good discussion here. Everyone else, feel free to post your grades and discussion. I'll reveal the answer this evening.
There has been a lot of interesting discussion on this one. Anyone else, feel free to join in! I'll post the answer tonight.
That seems silly. Why wouldn't they combine it into one show?
That's awesome, and congrats on finishing your set. Now it's time to get both P and D mintmarks ;)
Larry, is that a Typo?
@GoldFinger1969 , interested to get your take on this one.
Wow. That's beautiful. And that's why we pay more for these sorts of things!
Thanks for the link! I didn't know it was on smalldollars (although I suppose I should have guessed). The copy I have is a pdf of a version of the...

You're probably going to get guesses between VF-30 and EF-40. I'm leaning towards the high end of that range. A conservative grade would be 35,...
I don't understand. Why would you delete?
I've never used them, but it appears to be an Ebay-type affair. As for sellers that don't ship to the US - it might not be something they...
I'm fairly certain that this coin is not a proof. A proof would have a sharp, crisp strike. It should also have square rims. Your coin has...
The more you handle raw coins, the more likely you are to damage them. Any raw coin I have is only raw long enough to rinse in acetone, dry, and...
