This is the first Indian cent I've found coin roll hunting. It was in a shotgun-housed Brinks roll I got at the bank yesterday. Is this a...
I made the mistake of asking for information on a lens he had listed. It was like stepping into quicksand...
Why would a worn die press the metal on the planchet in deeper? Wouldn't die wear result in the struck areas being higher? (Worn dies typically...
I gave up on reporting "issues" to ebay over a decade ago. In one example, I went back and forth with them over my having a "Powerseller" spamming...

One last musing on this; if it is a strike through, whatever the metal is has similar ductility as the coin's bronze, as it's surface is flat and...

It may look rounded in the images, but it's flush with the surface of the coin. If I thought it had any value in excess of the cost, I'd send it...
I've never seen bronze corrode into a white silvery metal! OMG! It... must... be... a... MIRACLE!!!!
I wouldn't be surprised if the idiot tried it on one or two. I can easily see him lifting the basket out of the acid and going, "Uh-oh, didn't...
