Hi everyone- sorry to revive this old thread, but another cool thing has happened: Another Cointalk member has sent Phillip some more coins! So, I...
Thanks (on Phillip's behalf) - PM sent.
Since this is $5,000 of unplanned money, I'd skip what I'm currently working on (7070) a go for as nice a chain cent as I could get. I've always...

Hi. My thirteen year old son has one "coin" given to him by his late grandfather. It to me appears to be a gold plated silver token from...
Thanks. I can't see any doubling anywhere but the mark under the D. On it, the upper left corner of the smaller mintmark looks like a well...
My son and I found this cent in a box today. Sure looks to me like the D over D variant. If so, we'd be delighted, as its surely the rarest thing...
