I did too, labeling flips “specimen - example of die deterioration” or what have you. My intent, here, was to help to dispel the prevalent notion...
Don’t put it in a flip…a waste of time and a flip. This is obvious significant circulation damage AKA : PMD. It’s also known as a spender.
Yep. I agree. Taking into account the amount of wear along with a thinner than normal planchet and the accepted variance/tolerance allowed for...
Salvatore…listen to us: it’s not an error coin. Only the person who did the vise job could tell you why and how he did it to end up with the...
Kudos to @Sting 60 for isolating the referrant VAM. Good job, Sir! IMO…based on over 20 researches on various Morgans and Peace S$1… Die...
NO! NOT CLASS 2 (or any other known, acknowledged class). This coin has every indication of tampering! Wexler ( doubleddie.com ) lists the 8...
Kudos to you! Very nice. I applaud your perseverance and tenacity. This is how you do it. Stick to your guns when you know you are right. Now...

@King_George_Va …from your pic you still mean 10 francs, and NGC World Coin Catalog revealed the following: KM #964.1, bi-metallic, 6.5 grams....
Because France produced 11 coins in 1988 that had a denomination of 10 Francs. You need to be specific if you want any kind of assessment from CT...

It looks normal to me. It is clearly not a proof and is uncirculated. The yellow tint/tone I see from your pic may just be your light source....
It’s a well circulated, corroded Zincoln: PMD. I’m surprised it didn’t disintegrate into a pile of dust before you were able to take a picture of...
KM #276.6. Made first in 1997, listings stop at 2010 but the whole range is 30 cents for AU50. Yours are probably AU58/+ and it may take awhile...
2 things…maybe…. Maybe an Italian city-state, just a guess. The design on the upper left of the right-hand (reverse?) has church hat, maybe...
