Ok, I scanned the coins and now I'm going to claim temporary blindness or something. With the blow up, on screen, scanned images the difference...
I was filling some holes in my quarter folder and needed a 1976 40% silver BU. I already had the 40% silver proof. I puchased one that I...
I really like the designs. They look great in silver proofs. Maybe I'll have to get some.. Thanks for the pictures.
I found this quarter on the end of a newly wrapped roll. It has some bad rolling machine damage but I would like to know why it has such mottled...
My attempt Really tough questions! Question 1: I’m going to take the cheap way out and guess. Vegtable oils at room temp seem kind of thick...
I'm pretty sure it is a strike through. The line is pretty smooth and is indented into the surface. One thing that I don't understand is why the...
It was nicely pointed out to me that I mis-labeled the first post as a die-crack and that people interested in strike through coins might not read...
I recieved 3 2011 US mint sets and the Garfield dollar in two of the three Philadelphia sets have strike through errors. I posted pics of one...
Wow! Someone spent a proof quarter? They were either desperate or didn't know what it was. Do you work somewhere where you handle a lot of...
I opened up the set and the error is indeed on the coin. Initially I didn't think in looked any different out of the holder. However, after...
Thanks for the pointer. I see now that it would have been much better to ask the question instead of guessing in the title since I didn't really...
I admit I'm totally new to this and could be incorrect. I'll open up the set and take a look. Jay
I wasn't aware of the Type B and C varieties. I just read up on them and will certainly look them over before selling them. I'll post some...
I want to complete a 1932-1964 Wa Qtr set and I have about half of them. I also have a couple of rolls of AU 1964 Quarters. What would be a good...
Since nobody has hazarded a guess, I will. Maybe somebody can then correct me :). It looks to me like something was either deposited on the...
Thanks guys. So, in your opinion, should I keep the mint set or send it back for a replacement? I'm inclined to keep it because I find it...
Chris, what is a retained strikethrough? Would that mean the wire or whatever was on the die remained on/embeded in the coin? rockdude, the error...
It is hard to tell from my picture, but the lines are raised from the surface. Wouldn't that rule out a strikethrough? Jay
I just recieved a 2011 mint set and the Garfield dolloar has a split line coming from his head that I believe was caused by a pretty big die...
There is a extra "frosty" spot where the field should be clear on a 2010 Yellowstone ATB Quarter from a silver proof set. I'm guessing it is a...
