I realize that this is all probably dmg...but there are several spots where the rim isnt affected but there is excessive extra metal on the surface,they almost look like cuds.
I applaud your enthusiasm but you really need to take that enthusiasm and direct it toward actually learning something. All you do is post crap time after time and instead learning you just continue to post crap.
I do nothing but try to learn,ive been nice and respectful to everyone and all I get is smartass remarks ,I cant fkn know everything within a few months.If I have a question ,I am gonna ask. If you cant help then dont say anything at all,making me look stupid teaches me nothing about the coin. I'll just keep my shit to myself from now on.
That's all the more reason that you should not be looking for errors and varieties. You have no idea how a coin should look when it has gone through the minting process. If you think there may be a cud or two on this piece of junk, where do you think the coin metal came from to create the cud? If you can answer that, then you are starting to learn. Chris
TN. I've read your posts and believe your trying to learn. However, this is an obvious PMD. I think you're getting a little flak because some think you should have progressed more by now. Plus, you picked a bad time, being there are a couple of new whackadoodles currently posting nonsense IMO, suck it up and work through it. I haven't seen anything in your posts to make me think you're trolling. But, I highly recommend spending some more time reading through the info on doubleddie.com on how coins and dies are made. Also, CoinWeek has some videos on the minting process. Don't have a link, but you should be able to Google them. Finally, if you have a heavily damaged coin, anything that looks different is likely due to the damage. It's difficult to verify even minor errors in damaged coins, you so don't try to over think things. Hope this helps
You're right,if I dont know everything about coins I shouldnt collect or look for them. Makes total sense. @Oldhoopster Thanks...the last thing I wanna do is troll the forum.Alot of ppl have been nice and other just laugh and mock my curiosity. I'm genuinely interested in collecting and have read up on alot of different material. I dont know it all, so when I have a question.. I come here looking for answers. As u can see in the pictures,I held the coin at an angle showing that the outside rim was uniform and correct...but,the inside surface of the coin has a ton of extra metal on the surface. I was just curious how that was achieved without pushing metal from the rim to the area in question. I dont see how it is farfetched to question that. I apologize if I'm not up to par on certain stuff,I'm trying,but I will not be disrespected.
Rule of thumb on errors and varieties if it looks like it's be drug through a parking lot I don't even bother looking at the coin unless it's one of the big know dates. Even then if it's severely damaged it pretty much makes the coin face value for example I found a 1972 ddo-08 that looked like it was the puck in a game of street hockey normal value 10-30 dollars but where it's damaged it's fv.
