I’ll make a call out to our resident bust half expert @okbustchaser. He could authenticate that half for you.
Nice halves. I’m not an expert on that series and I am just spitballing. I think the 1836 should have a lettered edge. I think the 1826 may be a...
Those are commonly known as buffalo nickels. The US mint erred in judgement and placed the date on the highest point of the nickel. And because...
Apparently the “lowest bidder” changed in 2016 and 2017.
