Years ago when I subscribed to Coin World, there was an article about a cent, I don't remember the year, where the 'D' mint mark had a longer top...
Hey, that signature looks like it says 'Eva Adams'. Wasn't she the Director of the U.S. Mint back in the 1960s? Definitely a keeper!
This is a very legit mint error, and is not the first one to be found. There are at least two others. It's a Lincoln cent struck over a previously...
My sister gave me a bunch of coins that she saved, so I got out my Cherrypickers Guides to help me go through them. I have the 5th editions of...
I'm from Da Bronx, not in Da Bronx. My family moved to CT (Connecticut, the other CT) in 1969, but I'll always be a Boy from Da Bronx. We lived in...
Back in the 1950s and 1960s my father owned Nereid Bake Shop at East 238th Street in The Bronx (AKA Da Bronx). My mother handled all the finances...

OK, I took some pix of my acid-dated SLQs. I had to do a lot of Photoshopping to get them anywhere near clear. I don't have any of the fancy...
Right you are, coinquest. 'Silv-A-Date' was in a clear round plastic bottle, about 3" high, with a screw-on cap. I have my bottle of 'Nic-A-Date'...
Back in the '60s I used a product I believe was called 'Silv-A-Date' to restore dates on SLQs. I remember I could see it bubbling as it worked,...

I've been looking through a plethora of foreign coins that I've had for many years. Using the NGC World Coin on-line price guide, most of 'em are...
Please excuse my butting in, but being new I don't know how to start a new thread. A while ago, a reader posted pix of a 1909-S Lincoln Cent with...
