Ask another way. Is there any evidence that the 1913 Liberties aren't legal to own? There's plenty of evidence for the other three listed.
Did it say which example it is? Here's more than you ever wanted to know about the 1913 Liberty nickel, starting on page 6....
Good eye, I scrolled right past it. There is also a "recoinage" reference later, February 1914....
Here is a source for the dates of the start of the Buffalo nickel, from the daily coinage records, found here...
To me there's really no mystery or conspiracy involving the dies. Philadelphia typically shipped dies for the coming year in early-mid December -...
OK, you were very close to correct. HA responded. My mistake was not realizing that bid increments jump to $20 during live bidding for the...
Another consideration is that these were ultimately minted by the US mint branch right there in Manila.
Hmm, that's part of it I guess. I think I'll skip live bidding from now on.
Thanks, I've read through all that a couple times. It doesn't specifically address my scenario.
I'm already soured. Mostly mad at myself. I usually just set my max and let it go if I get outbid, but I was in the mood to buy something just to...
I have that thought as well but I was certain it said I was outbid at $240 when I hit the "cut bid" button. I don't know where or when my "bid...
I'll clarify that "what I was willing to spend" had BP factored in - was willing to spend around $300 with BP hence the $250 stated above -...
OK, I'll try. Or was this treasure hunt just for @charley ? https://www.officialgazette.gov.ph/constitutions/the-philippine-organic-act-of-1902/...
For someone with more experience bidding on Heritage than me... I placed a max bid yesterday at 9:55am of $223 for a coin with a Numismedia value...
That's a little known tidbit about those years. US coins that were kinda, sorta, Philippines coins! NGC echos what you quoted, in their blurb on...
Depends on how you define "US coin" I guess. If you parse the definition to "legal tender inside the United States" then probably no, they aren't....
They say United States of America on them.
Seems like a fair grade, although that scratch across the field and face... it barely shows up in the hair in your first photo, but quite obvious...
I'm guessing that must be the "Gimbels Department Store" example, sold 03/89 by Bowers & Merena for $33000, G4. The auction catalog is archived at...
I'd say FR02. AG3 still has some eye left, at least according to Photograde.
