I will go with the majority at 64.
My guess is that does not have enough 9's in his odds. If memory serves me right, they made a total of 18 of them (by mistake) and the last one...
I assume that means slab. In that case, the answer is none. Mintmarks have nothing to do with whether or not to slab. If anything directly...
No problem with Littleton grading, but these coins were not graded other than to say they were proof or unc.
Now you are going to have to be more specific. I see no "variety" listed on coppercoins.com that match yours. I am far from an expert on...
It appears to be a "cracked skull", but those are very common from that era. BTW, those are some very good pictures.
I am not sure where you are getting your "value" of the coins from. If you are trying to sell them sight unseen to someone, the fact that they...
I am hard put to see anything I would call wear on it, but all I can see is a picture. You have the coin in hand. Regardless, if you got that...
I would suggest you leave them in the packets. Until you know exactly what you are doing, they offer a great deal of protection against any...
I would also add that they had major problems getting the copper to stick to the zinc when they started this process. They gradually managed to...
RickieB is right about the zinc core, but the reaction was with water. You need to store them VERY dry places. I doubt it will spread, per se,...
Been there, done that, only I am still recovering (hopefully, anyway). Take care of yourself. It beats the heck out of the alternative.
Struck through grease. If someone were to offer you a quarter for it and I were you, I would take it.
The first thing you need to do is read this thread http://www.cointalk.com/t56246/
That is cheap. Howabout $4,200 for one that has been whizzed? See http://coins.ha.com/common/view_item.php?Sale_No=446&Lot_No=1063
I do not see it being struck through anything either. I see the carbon spots, but I do not think they will keep it from being slabbed. I suspect...
The problem with that logic is most people do not start a pole if they paid the going rate.
If they look that cameo in hand, I have no idea what they need to be called cameo. Maybe at the nest big show you are at with NGC, you could ask...
Gorgeous coins as I expect from you. Question. The 83 and 86 both look to me to be cameos. Maybe that is due to Todd's pictures, but are they?
How many courses have you had in metallurgy? My one was enough to tell me that manipulating copper is easy and then I had 40+ years of...
Separate names with a comma.
