So my coin press had been acting up sporadically over the last several months. Usually, the symptom was that it wouldn't complete the ejection...
Unlike most other commemorative half dollars, the 1918 Lincoln/Illinois generally is not found in high grade very often. Most range from impaired...
After a little closer examination, I would say that they are positively fake. Compare the two circled areas where the vertical wheat stalks were...
The obverse die for both coins has exactly the same die lapping effects in the same places. Note the area of the gown folds just to the left of...
I have serious doubts about the authenticity. For one thing, both pieces appear to have been struck from the same obverse die. That should not...
Yes, it is number on the silicone rubber ring.
That may be so. But here we have physics-fan3.14 inserting unnecessary and derogatory "Carr" comments into this thread that had nothing to do with...
In another thread some years ago you wrote: So you did essentially state that someone should collect what they like. Bravo. But ... You just...
. I seriously doubt that this will be the last time you comment on a "Dan Carr" item. Who are these "reputable people" you write of ? Is PCGS...
The first over-strike that I did was the "1964-D" Peace in 2010. It has been 15 years since then and during that time has anyone else "geared up"...
What is the date (on the other side, I presume) ? Is the design on the other side the same as the issued coins ?
. So are you accusing me of being an "infamous counterfeiter" ? If so, that is a serious accusation. . . The "1958-D" Lincoln in question has...

Neat coin. Is it made of brass ? There are non-"essai" gold 100-Franc pieces of the same design from 1929-1936. They are one of my favorite...
I looked at the detailed tracking for both packages. Both went through the Jersey City Distribution center. After leaving there, they do not share...
I have a lot of stamps to use. So I will likely continue the same way. But I will now tape all the edges of the stiff cardboard flats that I use....
I think there is a standard $100 coverage on all USPS packages, but I have heard that this is hard to get. Even harder when the package was signed...
I recently sent about 100 packages to all parts of the country. It has been reported to me by two different recipients that the stiff cardboard...
Better than 99.99% is certainly possible today. This AMAX round is from the 1970s, so there might not have been anything available with higher...
This thread is for the posting of vintage collectible copper ingots, such as souvenirs from mines, smelters, etc. I have noticed that the market...
