Wow!
There will be a whole bunch of people profit from his presidency, just not the ones I think should be profiting. I will leave it at that before...
I think the "they" in the OP was PCGS. They (PCGS) is ion business to make money. The more of those they sell, the less it should cost us (real...
That is when the little marks play a big role. There are 3 on the reverse and one on the obverse that I am not sure of.
I tried to point that one out to you the first time she posted it (page 2), but you missed it. I kind of thought that you would like it.
Could you please explain yourself. I see nothing wrong with it.
That is what I am waiting to see.
It just did it to me again. Thsi time the size was going up and down with everthing else.
That is you answer then. If they are electroplated, then the zinc is cleaned prior to the plating. Brushed one way then the other.
Again, if die polishing is the only explanation, where did the mark on Abe and the memorial come from?
The copper is not rolled? Just how does it get so thin if it is not rolled? I understand that there are 3 layers and they are sent through a...
OK, the zinc is only rolled one direction. Can you assure me that the copper is rolled the same direction?
I suspect you are looking for things that don't show up in one or the other picture. You have more than once stated that pics can hide/show...
Look at the obverse, Doug. Those lines go right through Abe and, less obviously, through the memorial. They are not raised as in the fields, but...
Interesting! Stupid question, but how did that get out of the mint. It had to be in a bag since it would not get through a roller.
There are some great looking Lincolns. I am trying to get one of those 09's (sans VDB). I am really looking for a red, but I think I would swap...
It is a 56. It is copper, so it is worth something. If you are asking do the die cracks make it a valuable coin, no they do not. Some year you...
My guess is that those marks are on the planchet and just do not show at Legend photographically. Were the coin cleaned, the first thing to come...
You beat me to it. I was just going to argue with doug again. Those are absolutely the same coin.
I am with toad on this one. The die may be worn also, but the die would not cause all the lines to be parallel. That comes from the roller...
Separate names with a comma.
