I'll be honest, I'm man enough to be honest about this, when i saw it, i couldn't believe it was a '48, but when i saw the S, it took the wind out of me. Lol. I sat down to admire her. Took me a solid 15 seconds of air fist bumps to calm down a little. Crazy week, so far. As always, thank you for stopping in.
@Copper lover and @AidenAlexander! As always, thanks for stopping by! Very slow afternoon. Got another proof though. Guess the coin gods really want me to finish that series. Only problem is, this is my third double. No kidding. S @Beardigger, that Lowell S you sent, really kicked things off nicely! Thanks again.
Thanks. I've gone through roughly 164,000 quarters, since April 19. Lol. Might be why I'm finding some stuff. Every 2050 quarters, i find W, according to math.
Sure, why not. Any suggestions on cleaning up this nickel? The pic is washed out, it's basically all green. Barely make out that P
@Beardigger, you know I'm a huge fan, and i can't thank you enough, but look what i found today. Patience is not my virtue. Almost two months from my first V75 find, I've completed both sets, on my own, from my own brand of circulation. @Beardigger, if you're short on Lowell, I'll send back, with my regards, and the Marsh-Billings is yours to keep, my friend. Thanks again, for everything.
On to S? A duplicate! Can you believe it? I found the other one a week or two ago. It'll be in this thread.
This one is new. Yes, that's 2 S proofs this morning. It's happened before, lol. 12 out of 50. I'm on my way.
Here's an article from 2012 and a thread from 2020 that you should find quite relevant @CoinJockey73. https://www.coinworld.com/news/precious-metals/san-francisco-mint-strikes-circulation-qualit.html https://www.cointalk.com/threads/san-francisco-business-strike-quarters.358984/
People would kill to have a month this good, but this was my morning. I am not rubbing that in, i promise. I'm over here scratching my head too.
