Very uncommon in circulation, but it happens. I have maybe three or four that either I found over the years or a friend did and thought I'd like...
True, but why would they offer, or anyone want, a newer label unless somehow, somewhere, someone had caused a loss in confidence in the older...
I'm guessing it went as a MS-65, but possibly a bit more.
Let us know how it comes out. I have several aluminum coins I'd like to look better, but I am not aware of any way to do it without making the...
Sounds like there's been a bunch of fakes using their older holders.
One way to tell it's die deterioration or machine doubling rather than true doubled die is that the mint mark is affected. In those days, unless...
The widow I mentioned received it as a gift from an elderly and disabled couple whom she took care of, both of whom recently died. Before he died...
I think it is 64. I don't think the flatness above the ear is wear. It looks like weakness in the strike to me.
I use my Red Book a lot, and it has a great deal of information in it. Unfortunately my most recent one is 1991, which is not much use for...
Thanks for the info. I do grade my stuff, but I wanted a second, more expert opinion. I had it pegged at G-6, but I'm really out of my league...
I'm trying to help a widow I know value some coins she came into. What would a dealer pay her for this? What grade would you give it?...
I'd make that trade any day.
That is where you press to turn on/off your $100.
Not an expert by any means, but it looks like it. However, it may be an optical illusion. The K, however is definitely either doubled or over...
That thin and relatively recent hints to me that it may not be a brockage in the usually sense. It may have been intentionally struck that way to...
Yes, there is such a thing, but this one is not. Notice the edge, both obverse and reverse, is sightly rolled up by whatever cut it. If the...
What the good people above are hinting at is that your clad dollars were clad when they were made in China, not in the US mint.
MS-62, but as said above, it's hard to tell. I'm assuming the flat cheek on Washington is weak strike and the disturbed surface mentioned above...
PF-65
Very nice coin! I'm way out of my league when it comes to identifying the different Edward pennies, but I know I like that one! Just as an...
Separate names with a comma.
