I bought this one and the other because I totally struck out at the Whitman Show last month. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
A new large cent for my EAC collection. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Ah ha! I hadn't considered they were for testing of this nature.
A quick search showed me that a lot of 15 of them had sold in a Heritage auction last year. The lot went for $33. And they appear to be British in...
I copied this from a post on another site. Anyone got the facts about them? [ATTACH]
Since the "crack" appears to go under (not across) the "C" in "CENT" I don't think it's a die crack. More likely a die scratch or maybe some sort...
For quite a while (and maybe still today) coins in "rattler slabs" were considered better than the labeled grade. That's a result of the touted...
I just looked at my large images of the coin. Tough grading by ANACS! [ATTACH] [ATTACH] It appears what they saw was the horizontal mark from...
I suspect it never made it out of the Portuguese Mint, hence it never really existed. If that's the case it was never monetized, i.e., it was just...
Trying to organize my collection and came across this. Forget the coin. Does the slab have any merit? Small size: 2 1/16" x 2 7/8" [ATTACH] [ATTACH]

Paper money catalogs are the bane of my collection, mostly because I only collect US small-size $1 bills, 1928 through 1969. Most catalogs just...
I was there about the same time. And I was looking for specific dates/varieties/grades (VF/XF/AU) of half cents and large cents in NGC or PCGS...
YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, etc.? I don't have an account on any of them. I spend too much time in front of my computer as is....
Nothing. Absolutely nothing! 1st choice - Couldn't find a half cent for my collection. 2nd choice - Couldn't find a large cent for my collection....
Thanks for all the responses. @Jack D. Young particularly. I saw what I thought might be "mounds" but I don't have enough experience to be sure.
I've got this ID'ed as an S-22. The slab has it ID'ed as a 1794/Head of 1794. BUT I can't account for the apparent die crack from in front of the...
Nice! For as much currency as has passed through my hands, I've never gotten anything like that. At least that I know of.
