For you as per your request @love old coins. This is the one just like yours.
Hard to say about what caused the coloring other than the environment. Just don’t scrub or rub it as that will cause more damage.
I should mention that this has a fold but no pinholes. Minted by Amber and Daly, Richmond Virginia.
Actually that’s a very nice coin. Despite the coloring on it I seriously doubt it’s been on the fire because it looks too good. I’ve seen coins...
I may be mistaken but that does not look like scratches to me. It looks like a lamination detached itself from that area and took the last digit...
Nice coins and not bad for $100 at all. Great pick ups so please enjoy.
A super nice coin. And it’s a wonderful first ancient coin. That’s a beautiful owl on the reverse. Congratulations!
Just damage so I’d spend them. Welcome to CT.
The price on these CSA Notes continues to rise. This is considered a common note so lower end price wise but in the 9 years I’ve had it, it’s gone...
Probably worth less than $50.00. Those lead fishing weight can be costly. Lol
Lol
I purchased this note in 2012. It was in a box of coins that have been packed for years. It’s an 1863 $.50 CSA Note. It’s printed on what is...
And I thought it was a zebra effect. Lol
Hope that works out for you. I just bought 2 CSA Notes from 1861 so no silver for me. Silver under spot raises some eyebrows.
I’ll stick with US gold coins.
It’s called a woody. The stripes are caused by a poor mixture of the metals and yes, that would be a copper cent. A definite keeper but not worth...
By the time I’m eighty they won’t be speaking my language anymore. Lol
Nice!
Not really. The value is determined by a number of things. Type of coin, number of them known to exist, supply and demand and the type of error....
Anything silver is going up faster than you can count to one hundred. A junk grade silver dollar 2 years ago was $15.00, now it’s over $25.00.
