    Just Bob got a reaction from Errorists in Die Gouge Or Hubbed-In Debris On 2002P Louisiana Quarter?   
    Debris between the surfaces of the die and hub will conform to the shape of the raised areas of the hub and be pressed into the recessed areas of the die.  That would mean the it would show up on the highest part of the design, as well as the field. Kurt explained it, and Roger confirmed it, but here is the description on error ref.

    I inserted a 21.2mm slug into that hole in the Dansco album and wrote on it in black Sharpie, “WHY?”  I did the same for the 1918/17 Buffalo. I don’t follow, I decide.

    Just Bob reacted to Fenntucky Mike in It's Token Tuesday! Post 'em if you got 'em.   
    Just got these in the mail and haven't had time to research them yet but here you go anyway. I don't necessarily collect masonic pennies and tokens but one can't help but end up with a few when collecting tokens. I'm not convinced that this one isn't an irish token as opposed to being from the IoM.

    Here's the other one that caught my attention. It's a modified masonic penny or token. Kind of a hobo masonic token. Whether or not this was actually used on the IoM I couldn't say, but it's doubtful. Still a neat piece.

    Just Bob got a reaction from Osamasan61 in I have this Brass coin 1776 is it authentic or fake ?   
    It is as stated in the above posts. Just to the left of the date you will see a tiny letter "R" incused into the surface. That signifies "replica."

    Just Bob got a reaction from Lem E in Die polishing lines - interesting feature or distraction?   
    The amount and placement of the lines on this coin are distracting to me. I feel the same way about planchet adjustment marks on early dollars.

    Just Bob got a reaction from Familyman0327 in 1878 s Morgan   
    Lots of parallel hairlines all over the surfaces of the coin. That one would not get a straight grade at a major grading service, or from a knowledgeable collector.
