Nickels, or Sac. & Presidential Dollars have no reeding. The edges of those coins, on genuine Mis-Annealed planchets, would not have the same...
Nice retained cud on an earlier date. The coin is a bit corroded on the reverse; not improperly alloyed.
Joe, can you restate your question? Not sure what you're asking.
They should also have some 'luster', even if they're dark. The 1961 might be a mis-annealed planchet, but not on those 1959's. (although that's...
PM98 nailed it. Worn/overused die
As mentioned, that's the designer's initials. They are on all Peace Dollars in that area. Check your other's...... ....or it's yellow splotches!
I don't see a 'date above the date' or anything else. Maybe the yellowish toning gives the appearance of digits or something else, but I don't...
Remember that whether a coin is normally graded, or 'details/damaged' graded, or slabbed as a normal coin, it goes thru the entire process as if...
That's a normal clad dime, beat up a bit, and 'enviornmental damage' to the surfaces You can see the copper core, as you should, and the obv. and...
If you mean the edge (side) of the quarter, yes, it looks just fine.
Damage No clash marks at all
Looks like it's genuine, from what I can see. These have come down in price over the past 5-6 years. Today, it's probably at $85-$120 coin on...
The best way to study possible earlier types of planchets is to view and compare the rims on Off Center strikes of Liberty and Buffalo Nickels.
Although some will say it's possible it's from a filled die, I believe the coin has been buffed or altered in the date area. Look at the 'lines'...
Looks like a RPM, but that's a rim ding (damage) at 8:00 on the reverse. The 3:00 area looks like it's flattened a bit. Neither area is a...
A 'wheel mark' is the circular scar that a counting machine gives a coin when it's jammed in the machinery. Sometimes the circular wheel mark is...
Your planchet is for a Jefferson Nickel. The rims on struck coins are going to look different than on a planchet. You can't tell an earlier type...
OP's coin is More of an anomaly than an error. A very very very minor MAD.
Not on a dime planchet, that's for sure. ...probably plated, as a novelty item.
...or used in a game of poker, to mark the pile of chips......
