Wow, thanks for the complements, I'm happy that I helped the community! I am starting an ATB Silver Proof Quarter collection. Whenever I buy a 5...
With all that being said, are you for getting rid of the cent, and paper 1 dollar? Canada-style?...
Collectors Alliance sells coin tubes that have spacers to prevent any kind of rub. Here is a link to the one for quarters:...
Interesting tidbits of information. Was this change done mainly for the nickel or all circulating coins.
I have a perfect untouched Silver Eagle sealed in a Littleton Coin bag. If someone has the Type 2 in the Littleton bag that would be super...
This has been on my mind for a while but I never talked about it. It annoys me whenever I get one in change. This probably is an old debate but...

thanks!
Thanks for all the good technical stuff. I can’t imagine that the planchet (and I’ve always meant upsetted and any other process that is done...
There's the hammer/anvil dies and the collar. This whole post makes the assumption that the collar is a bit larger than the planchet to allow...
Yup yup...makes sense so the "missing" silver reed just flowed into the minted coin elsewhere. Small enough to make no visual difference.
US mint states both types weight 31.103g. Is the missing reed under 0.0001g? Is the weight difference within the tolerance? Iw the missing...
