I know. I'm afraid I bought an S version that has been altered to make it look like the valuable one. I guess my earlier post was unclear.
NEVER buy a coin outside at night... I think I bought an altered coin, but I am hoping that the experts here will alleviate my fears. It seems...
I have the opportunity to purchase what I believe to be a 1928. Some of the features mentioned here appear to be present in the coin, but I am a...
All is well here!
Thanks for your help! I can't get my camera to cooperate right now, but mine seems to be just above the XF/AU coin you showed. Since mine came...
Gotcha-I will review the link you shared and will go from there. It seems like I need to be very careful with this coin. It may be worth a couple...
I bought a 1902 Settlements Straits 10 cent piece today at a flea market. The vendor had given her opinion that it graded at AU. I know that...
Anyone who has been collecting for 40 years can call me kid if he wants. No offense taken-I appreciate your concern.
You're probably right. I have only been collecting for 3 or 4 years, and though am no kid (at 33, I probably seem that way to many) there is a lot...

Which side, Ethan? There is nothing on the rim of the coin, but it is a rugged surface, just like on the American silver eagle.
That's good advice, green. I saw it yesterday and didn't buy, but we were leaving town today and I hadn't bought any silver. I couldn't stand it...
Bingo!
Hey green18: I bought this one at an antique store that has been doing business in that downtown area for 20 years or so, so I thought I was...
Thanks for the good info. I tried to post the reverse, but my camera is being goofy. It looks the same as the reverse of a buffalo nickel, except...
I looked through the Google Images list. I wonder if there is a way to trace the copy # on the front? For future reference, is it true that as...
This is the best picture I could get. Thanks for your help!
