You guys keep saying that nobody will care once it has been cracked out, yet I saw someone bid $50 on a fake 1909-S VDB Lincoln. Don't...
Go right ahead.
My pleasure. Are you French or do you just live there. Have you seen the Lafayette Monument in Paris?
Lee, Did you get a chance to read my thread about the Lafayette Dollar. There is a post about the die varieties on page two that might interest...
Is it visible, it's like looking standing at the edge of the grand canyon and missing it because of the incredibly beautiful sunset.
Then you are going to hate this one. 1887 NGC MS63 and I am not kidding. She got in a knife fight and lost--LOL. The toning draws your...
Ruben, Can you keep a :secret: I hate the Lincoln Memorial Cent. I take the electroplated zinc ones and cut them in half with a pair of...

My suggestion is to buy slabbed coins and then crack them out if you really want raw coins. Photograph the coins prior to cracking them and then...
They look like they are ready to kiss. Not that there is anything wrong with that.
Normally I don't like die varieties. But in this case, they are so easily identifiable with easy to find diagnostics, I think it would be fun....
It occurs to me that since 14,000 of these were melted, the scarce varieties are a direct result of the melt. What if there were other dies used...
I still want the actual book. I always get outbid.
