If there was a big enough market I am sure the Chinese could find a metal mix that would ring like a bell.
They should use the fakes comming out of China for these. Not many people would know the difference and it would still look great.
I don't think the bank will take them that way. I wonder if anyone ever tried.
Entry post Always up for a game of any sort.
I got a box of halves once and maybe 30% of the coins had a black stripe on them. I am guessing that another CRH marked them after he examined...
A true flipper would display the same serial number right side up or up side down!
Is there any perceivable difference in the sharpness of the printing between a high number note and a low number note?
I was so fixed on the hand print I didn't even notice the serial number. Nice catch!
For some reason, when I go strap hunting, I find more lower numbered notes than higher. I wonder how the BEP releases them.
I think we can all agree what it is, but is it a chop mark or someone playing around with a rubber stamp? I don't have the answer.
Whatever is in his hair looks like the white stuff that is on the fed bank seal. I do not think that is a chop mark.
They are hands with a pointing finger. Could be chop marks, but I have never seen them before.
In that condition, it is not worth keeping for any reason. Unless you just like it. Who am I to tell you not to keep it if you like it It is...
I would not bother with the stains. If you can afford to keep it, keep it.
If you are intrigued by paper money serial numbers, scrape together $100 and buy a strap (100 notes) of singles from your local bank. Search...
That 4 looks like a combination of it took a hit die crack. Taking a hit probably altered the angle.
So is the OP's coin a vise job?
I agree with Fred. Like that makes a difference!
Why is this in the almost paper money thread?
I have this one laying around. I know it isn't worth squat but I just can't put it back into circulation. [ATTACH]
