Talk to the TPG first I guess. They must have some thick/wide holders to use, for example this Lincoln cent struck on a screw....
Must be a tough bit of wire with one end really struck in there to survive bouncing around through the mint. Is there a tall capsule that might...
Yeah, that's definitely a hit from the edge of another coin. Usually it's reed marks. If OP is talking about the dent in the upper lip, they're...
So, the check I was expecting showed up today, 08/07. It is postmarked 08/04. The tenants mailed it 07/25. I trust them on this because they've...

What the heck? I call this phenomenon “numismatic psychosis” and it’s best to stay away from it.
I was looking for lost mail at the PO yesterday and had the guy check the surrounding PO boxes because they're always putting stuff in the wrong...
