I was going on the fact it is modern, has a fold through the portrait and you can't see the next note on the wide margin. The OP mentions offset,...
The story I read just said domestic gun ranges and not actual WW2 stuff. But then, I read it may just be an urban myth.
I really don't agree with the $130 that was quoted by MEC2, but he knows more about it than I do. I only see a slight premium at best.
How much is it worth? How much will it be worth after getting graded? Grading fees, return postage, insurance I am told can run $30. While it is a...
Earlier in the thread, from 6+ years ago, one of the mods states that NO cents were ever made from spent shell casings. (Symbolic or otherwise.)

That is really nice. I bet in the old days there was better quality control at the mint and fewer errors escaped into circulation. You'll have to...
That's nice. Is there a reverse image?
I guess it is easier to alter an 8, than to remove a digit and add a 3. [ATTACH]
While the weight is correct the 3 looks bad. It's a different color. It's wonky as if it was added on to another 194- coin. [ATTACH] The 3 should...
Seller should be in Rikers Island.
Yes I agree all the Pan Pacs seem very special.
While a new discovery is possible, there are a million fakes and altered coins, and if it's not steel, that's almost always what it is. It doesn't...
Copper is reactive. Air, water, soil, gases, pollutants will turn it colors. If it has been in the ground, it will often turn red. [ATTACH]
