I have recently heard a rumor that the government is to or has stopped production of the presidential series dollar coins. Does anyone know if...
This coin is different than other Presidential Series dollar coins I have in that the finish seems blotchy or freckled. Is this due to...
The color is from poor lighting. I was looking at some of the stars to the left, especially the one right below and left of "OR" in live free or...

So most likely, the entire coin was once covered in that redish-brown color, which is not a normal patina but damage, and someone tried to take it...
Thank you for the help. The color in the pic is indeed correct, but I would probably need a better camera to get more detailed photos. So the...
Ummm...I hope it wouldn't hurt to take a few swipes with a wire brush over it..........JK! I would NEVER in my right mind clean or otherwise alter...

Thanks you! So the above coin was minted in Constantinople, modern day Istanbul, Turkey and made its way to Jerusalem. It makes me ponder on the...
Is it just me or does this quarter seem off-centered? The border looks to be wider around the top above "LIBERTY". Does anyone else see this?...
I am new to the site and I know very little about errors. I compared this with another 1976 nickel and the letting on this one seems almost...
I am looking for info on these two ancient bronze coins. They were found in Jerusalem. I believe they are from the Roman era. How are the...
Thanks for the heads up. I am new and still figuring out the site. I'll do that and see what happens.
