The weakness of the reverse lettering (especially United States of America) and the odd strength of the date, as you mention, were the two things...
Are you saying its counterfeit?
I will not agree to disagree. I think he's a counterfeiter, engaging in an illegal operation. His counterfeits should be gathered and melted, and...
Wow, that's very interesting. You don't hear about counterfeit dealers getting sentenced very often. More often the bad apples are convicted of...
There is a thread to post DCarr fakes and counterfeits. Any DCarr counterfeit should be posted there. Any other thread or post relating to DCarr...
No, the rims and edges are wrong for a proof. The strike isn't strong enough for what I'd expect for a proof, either.
I'm aware of a couple of Quadruple Dies (4x). I'm not aware of any Quintuples (5x). Can you post one? I'm really curious to see that! (Note:...
Wexler actually specifically addresses the 1972D cent in his article here: http://www.doubleddie.com/203801.html
It looks genuine to me, but harshly cleaned and polished - with intentionally deceptive photos. This is the sort of thing that might be sold on...
You might expect it, but I can honestly say I've never seen it.
So you're saying it shifted a bit between strikes? I suppose I could see that. Are there other confirmed examples of this?
Total, complete, and absolute speculation: This does not appear to be hub doubling. It doesn't have the appearance of a doubled die. This...
I'm not entirely sure what this is, just from these pictures, but I'm not convinced it is MDD. It isn't flat and shelflike at all. I would...
Your non-answer is unacceptable in this thread. As punishment, you are sentenced to post your favorite two overdates, and explain why you like them.
It is *extremely* unlikely that you'll be able to tell any progression from 10 consecutive coins. That die will strike 1,000,000 or more in its...
Absolutely nothing on this coin suggests a details grade. I think this is an UNC coin, and I think it would easily get 63. The luster is...
I don't really see any circulation wear, and I don't see anything severe enough to call damage. I see quite a few marks, but nothing too severe....
On the spot: pick one! Which one is your favorite? (there are so many!)
That's a subtype and not a variety. Is there a variety on the 1916 SLQ that you really like? Or is there some actual variety that you are fond of?
It is die struck, which is good. Modern Chinese counterfeits are also die struck, so I can't tell you for certain if this is real or not. All I...
Separate names with a comma.
