Cooling or freezing will contract the metal of the coins to help free them…Spark
Nothing earth-shattering, but I got both of these from circulation 3 days ago. Note that the '82D is a RED and very well preserved and is maybe...
I agree it is not real. Compared with real images, it looks cartoony in design and plated and it shows where the plating has worn thin to expose...
All on her blouse. This is a truly horrendous design and does not do Jovita Idar justice…imo…Spark
Upward of 14,585+ pennies, or 292+ rolls. That’s going to take you awhile to check them all for doubled die and rpm varieties. …you better get...
IMO…i think the edge reeding would be flattened or obliterated based on apparent wear if a dryer victim. I concede it could be a dryer coin, it...

No, if only melted, not re-smelted, the metal retains the properties of the alloy. Case in point: After WW2 it was proven that Switzerland...
Honestly, it looks more like die deterioration than RPD. Check Coins and Canada for listings. Nice coin, BTW…has survived well for a 131 yo...
No, not a dryer or machine…more like dropped in a parking lot and run over a multitude of times…imo…Spark
