I'm closing my office for the day, so I won't get any more entertainment till tomorrow morning. In the meantime.....enjoy yourselves! By the...
How about this: 'YOU'RE A LIAR' Paul D.F. from ANACS never said that your cent is worth $20,000, or that he would pay...
I'm not the first, nor will I be the last, to say that if you believe it's a genuine error, please submit it to any authentication service you...
I know Paul DeFelice (sp?) at ANACS and I can assure all of us who are reading this that he did NOT offer $20K for it, and .....that he did NOT...
counterfeit on all three sides
I've seen the same photos that you guys have. I told him a few times it's damaged/altered, and on the third reply to him, I suggested he go to...
The OP thinks that bottom coin is the rare Proof "No S" MM Cent. That info is all over the internet, but folks look for the coin without the "S"...

The tops of United are missing due to the strike, not to it being off center. It's Broadstruck out of the collar, and no design elements are...
It's not the best set of photos, but I don't believe it's a lamination or struck thru; it's too deep. A better, closer photo of that area might...
I wouldn't say 'altered digit' necessarily; looking at the wear pattern, and marks, it's just a coincidence that one 'hit' is on the '6'.
I told him to go to this site and post a photo of the coin.
It's a private issue - the weight you gave is correct for a 1 oz. silver round - Because the piece has been cleaned at one time, the color is a...
All are MAD's, but only the '83 would have a premium, imo. (maybe a few bucks for the '82)
