Disagree about the zinc instantly being melted down. Are you going to buy $10,000 worth of pennies, in order to make a $30 profit? Besides the...
I have had success using a very strong light, and an eye loupe and then, tilting the coin around. Things will show up if you use a very high...
The web photo or mine? In my photos, if I orient the gold hued one with the hole closer to 6 o'clock, it matches up very well (not exactly) and...
Appears to me to have an oily sheen. (Could be the light.) But it suggests that someone did something, and this is not the way the coin would...
Yes mine appears to be a 10 Para as the weight 3.4 grams is in the range of 2.40 to 3.55. I just meant that the markings were so similar that it...
Using your information, I found this which is incredibly similar (but not exact) for mine....

Hi, I don't know what this is, a coin dealer (not an expert on Ancients) said it was an old Indian coin. A quick Google search, and I think it may...

Did a Google search and came up with 2 or 3 similar photo/ error threads. If this was a true error variety, it would be known. If you look at the...
Why is it gray and not brown? All of the large cents I have are brown. And some a more reddish/ copper color but not gray.
If you orient the original photo you posted and enlarge the LIBERYY area, it is clearly faked. 100% fake.
It's a fake photo.
I saved this photo to desktop, oriented it correctly and enlarged it. There is a line above the word LIBERYY and clearly looks photoshopped.
IDK if this is true but: "The Blue Book is a coin price guide that informs you on the approximate amount of money you can expect to get if you...
I've never seen an 1856 FE. How many have survived to this day? What is the population of graded specimens? TY
It absolutely looks a lot better. I think stopping is a good idea, anymore conservation would probably cause metal loss/ fatigue. I don't think it...
It's posts, articles, information like this that I really appreciate. I pulled out all my 41-S's, all small. But I learned something.
