"D". DoubleD die. And no, it is not.
Nope. Don't see it. Could be some MD but the pictures aren't clear enough to tell.
I only have 1 Portuguese coin(minus current euro coins). A 1932 5 Escudos(800,000 mintage) that I paid $0.99 w/free shipping off the 'bay :) [IMG]...
Definitely plated and worth 1 cent. That coin dealer guy is wrong.
I like both junk silver and government bullion(ASE, Maples, Libs, etc...). What I certainly would not buy is a 40% half for $4/piece...or...
Can't tell with the pictures you provided but I give your posts a PO-1.
Looks like dirty nastiness plus plating bubbles to me.
Nope
laminations
Heavily worn IMO.
Ugh...enough with the Morgans already people...(I'm sure I've made enough of you mad with that statement...lol). Go for the Peace Dollar!
My vote is for PMD as well.
Happy Birthday! I've been here for about 2 years now and they have been fun. I don't currently have any pictures for 2002 to post but I am...
Good luck.
Maybe struck through something? Maybe lamination? Maybe PMD? Tough for me to really tell without clearer pictures.
Which is why you have the type 1 and type 2 versions of the coins since they go into that machine in no particular way.
Their "pride" is in not letting things like no S proofs make it out of the mint.
What about all the scratches on the obverse?
I would assume that the mint considered them a mistake (which they were) and destroyed them.
Need me to send you $15? ;)
