I almost missed sharing 43P DDO-022, which is similar but has more vertical spread, and shows also more on the R than my example: 1943P DDO-022...
I'm really flabbergasted by these responses. It's actually ironic since I posted this as a counterpoint to the normal DDO posts seen here. I was...
Wow, I am not impressed with the misinformation being proffered on this forum. If you don't know what you're talking about, perhaps you should not...
You are incorrect. However, if indeed those were die chips, they would be extremely interesting ones indeed! Most die chips occur in areas of...
It does take a while to send in and get an attribution or new listing, but I will try to remember I created this thread...
Thanks, I'm well aware of the process, but I believe this DDO is strong enough (hopefully) to submit to Wiles at CONECA. It is similar to a few...
Take a look at the crop photo. The doubling shows mostly on the Y to the SW, and a little on the T to the S Correct, which is why this is a new DDO.
Thought I'd buck the trend here and post a new doubled die I discovered recently. This one shows pretty nicely on the Y of LIBERTY, and indeed it...
Big group of 98 ChBU Wheat Cent rolls for sale. Selling one or all. A couple in late 30's, lots of 40's and early 50's. Mostly tubed, no OBW's, a...
You're doing exactly the right thing...looking at coins, noticing the differences between the designs, looking them up, and learning in the...
Here are a few of the most common banks in my collection: Bank of America N.T.&S.A. California Bank Head Office Los Angeles Cal. Crocker First...
I'm looking through my OBW rolls, and finding that because I live on the West Coast, most of my rolls are from western banks. I'm curious about...
There is a wide range of tilt on mintmarks. They were punched by hand so no two are alike. Some are close to the date, some far away. Some are...
That's what I've done, but so far has been fruitless. Other denominations are available but not Cents. Maybe it will just take a bit longer...
Anyone know where square plastic Cent tubes can be found with blue and pink colors?
Has anyone documented how many dies were used to strike the ~1M 1921 Peace Dollars?
Careful with terminology here. As I explained to the OP, die state and strength of strike are completely independent things. I have a few BU...
The die state is an important aspect of the coin, right?
I have purchased a camera like the one you linked to, but just the camera, not the lens/stand/lights. I like the camera quite a bit, and it...
It may be that the only fully-struck examples extant are the Proofs. Have you compared Proof strikes vs the best Business Strikes? I have seen...
Separate names with a comma.
