Wonderful coin. @Paddy54 sent me shiny war nickel. I love when these nickels look like regular nickels. Ours are warn.

 

What’s that all about

 

Only two more to go and the set will be complete

 

Bid at the last second and won an auction on eBay.

 

I didn't really need another one, but this sold raw at a really cheap price and my bid took it.


Full-resolution photos

 

I just noticed there is something odd about the mintmark.


This was the first year Denver struck Lincoln cents, so I guess they needed some practice getting the placement in the right spot.

I checked it out at Variety Vista, and it looks like an RPM-003 (D/D Rotated CW. FS-503).

 

Arrived, won it Sunday and arrived Thursday....From CA to PA

 

Arrived in today's mail.

 

Rats....where the devil are mine? Mint sent 'em out last week.

 

Seller's photos and my photo (showing actual color). Not sure how I feel about the seller jacking with the color like that. There were actually three obverse hub types in 1900 and I finally acquired the third. I'll post a whole thread on it at some point.

 

Nice!! I'm still waiting on my nickels from the same auction.

 

very nice

 

I’ve been looking for a nice later date large cent for quite a while and finally decided to go all out and pull the trigger on this MS64. I suspect it may be a “net grade” as there are some hits on the cheek but the surfaces and luster are off the charts.

 

Just received in change at the coffee shop, 1982-D small date zinc. Still quite red. Has parallel plating lines covering both sides, which looks cool. Not worth anything, just fun to see still floating around after 40 years.

 

Just bought on the bay. Looks nice in the TrueViews.

 

That’s beautiful. Nice.

 

Feebay photos. I’m certain the toning is much better in person.

 

This is a German silver 25Pfg from 1912. German Empire in MS 65. Very nice in hand.

 

New arrival. 1937 proof Lincoln with mintage of 9,320. Flaws are in the plastic.
