Possibly mis-aligned die, quite common. Also referred to as a MAD.
I see that Mesa sells TL-15 rated safes and they appear to look pretty good as far as being able/unable to crack them. I'm not sure about 350...
This (letters worn away) is from die wear and very common. The uglies look like they have been in a fire but this is likely environmental damage,...
Thank you for the taking the time, appreciated.
I missed out on that error boat Chris (Wisconsin). What did happen in that case?
Well wouldn't you know it...the U.S. Mint caught on to the feeding frenzy of these coins and all their doubled dies. They are now offering them...
It was only a guess, thought maybe something slipped in on the blank and then the die hit it.
I am going to guess some foreign object got caught between the blank and die as Markus says, it's behind the lettering.
I agree also, I've seen a lot of "extra metal" which appear as splashes or drops on Roosevelt dimes, on the obverse and usually relegated to the...
Die Chips/Die Breaks, an old die on it's way out.
You may want to double check the terms of delivery. Some carriers will only deliver to your doorstep, some will deliver to a first floor only and...
Sorry Kat, just wear and tear.
Absolutely! This was a great collection that had over 100 1940's, 200 1950's and the rest were silver age comics from the 60's. I've been...
That was a great, quality time activity to do, KUDO's. I'm glad you were able to get by beach patrol. I was metal detecting twice on the Outer...
I believe Tucows and/or CNET has a basic coin collecting program, either freeware or cheap shareware that will help out in keeping an electronic...
Of course I agree with everyone here about red flagging this one. But...I was able to score a comic collection worth at least $5K for $500 a year...
rickmp was kidding with you. I'd trade it in for a nice B.U. Standing Liberty Quarter. Low serial # yes, but condition says not to keep.
You did well for type coins at $2.00 each. Even though I don't advocate cleaning any coins, at this price it might be worth the effort and have...
Possibly a struck through but that line leading to the peeling looks more like PMD, possibly a bad rub/hit to the coin while in bagged transit?...
I would guess for the same reason they put the 1922 and 1955 doubled die in there, which there was no reason to do as they were both...
