Has Denver ever produced any proof coins?
I have probably a dozen of them pulled from circulation in the 70s. I don't know what I'm ever going to do with them. A 1971-S brown box I think...
I think the whole coin is fake. The pitted texture on In God We Trust looks just like the $2 "coins" on that Chinese site.
It doesn't surprise me that Charlton is wrong, but I can't say either way. coinsandcanada lists them in SP and PR, but also as "NBU", defined as...
Yeah, I guess. I suppose we can blame the ANA. As a price-based system it was invalid 20 years before they adopted it. Now we're stuck with it.
What you see is what they say. GC hardly ever has a detailed description....
Quite an odd and disturbing perspective if you really think about it. Exactly who is giving this incentive and for what reason? The incentive with...
I agree with weird hit on the 1947. Same thing happened at Abe's chin.
Well, Sheldon also invented a scale for "valuing" people based on their body type, and believed in eugenics. "At the time", people thought that...
Generally speaking I don't understand any of this anyway. It's like owning stock with a fancy wrapper, and then you take it to auction where you...
Can you post images of the full coin, from directly overhead, with both sides properly oriented? I think that would help. It's not as rare as it...
To me the spacing of TAT in States says it's Close AM, as far as my understanding goes. If the A is centered, it's Wide AM, and if the A is closer...
"No mint mark" means absolutely nothing, if that's what you think is special. Philadelphia cents have only ever had a P in 2017, to celebrate the...
My hunch is that there is a gouge there, it's just packed with crud. If it was on the die, there would be others like it, so I suppose you could...
I think it's a deep gouge that moved a lot of metal. You can seen that the scratch then continues above the 9 and across the rest of the visible...
Interesting how the crack incorporates the dot to the left of UNUM.
Color alignment got a little Wild on this Washington. [ATTACH]
Might as well post the other 1948. [ATTACH]
Too funny on the thread timing - my daughter just got me these for my birthday. Whitefield White Mountains Wooden nickels. [ATTACH]
You set the precedent so... I love the story behind the 1947 maple leaf coins from Canada, actually minted in 1948. Grandpa gave me this one 50+...
Separate names with a comma.
