Coinbuf

I would like to replace the 40-S dime, the one in my set is ok but doesn't have the best eye appeal. So while a + coin would be nice to take its place, it is more about finding a nicer looking coin even if the grade stays the same. Not a must do but rather one of those back burner coins that I'll be on the look out for but not aggressively searching for. I actually have a PCGS MS65 with a CAC gold bean that is far more eye appealing than the current NGC 67, if I am not able to find one that has the eye appeal I want perhaps one day I'll crack that MS65 and have it regraded. I think it would go 67 in a heartbeat and has the eye appeal I want, just hate to crack a rattler holder.

While I don't see an obvious signs of a harsh cleaning I would pass on this coin due to what might be PVC on the obv rim at 10 o'clock. There could also be some old cleaning hairlines hiding under that tan toning that do not show up in a static photo. What grade to you give this coin @jimbo27?

Ian must believe that these four coins have an excellent chance to receive a bean, and that the addition of a bean would have an impact on the final selling price. Ian will screen the coins he gets in for auctions and will recommend a trip to CAC if he feels it will be good for you.

Thank you, it was quite expensive but considering that it has almost the same point value as a 40-S walker in 67 at less than 1/4 of the price I decided to reach for it. And to be honest the coin it replaces was never my favorite as the tone was rather heavy for my taste, a nice side benefit is having an NGC top pop coin inthe set. Only one coin in the set that I really want to upgrade now, the hunt continues.

Can you expand on what "opposite from what ive seen" means? I see nothing out of the ordinary other than the slightly misaligned obv.

I would bet that at one time or another most long term collectors have several to many side set projects and one or two main sets. I have 74 registry sets 13 of which revolve around my main collecting focus of Lincolns, the 61 other sets are random coins that I picked up over time. Most of those other sets are shorter sets including some type sets and year sets like the sets that are in my sig line. In addition to my registry sets I have many raw sets, Morgans, Lincolns, IHC, Buffalo, Merc, Franklins, gold lots of stuff that I bought because I liked it and then grew. The only area I stay away from is the modern stuff like ASE's and newer mint products, don't care much for that and have no desire to collect anything other than a few bits here and there from circulation.

Yep, value one cent.

The replies above are correct, common dates with minimal value over the face value and low collector demand.

Welcome to the grading world, it is an imperfect, highly subjective world that is driven by opinions; and opinions are not reliable nor 100% repeatable. Modern mint products are often even more susceptible to very minor differences in opinion as the grade range is very narrow. Having said that, just because a coin is sitting in a mint capsule never out of the mint packaging does not automatically equate to perfection.

Welcome to the forum. How to submit coins If you still have questions calling the NGC customer service team should help to answer them.

Some people bought them up so they could flip for a profit, and because many did that some collectors that "had" to have one (or a set) decided to pay the inflated prices rather than wait and see. Some collectors like to be the first on the block to show off the new, latest and greatest coin, for those collectors this was just another in a never ending line of mint products. I personally could care less about the 2021 Morgan and Peace dollars, I do not own a single one nor do I expect that I ever will. But collecting is all about personal goals and likes so it makes no difference what you or I like. As long as those collectors who bought them are happy with the coins then it is all good.

Just a common circulated 1966 Lincoln cent with some glue or wax or whatever on it. It is not an error and has no value over the $.01 face value

Go the post of the person looking for the coins, click their name and you will be taken to their profile page. There you can click on message to send them a DM, there is no way to contact through the registry itself.

First have you checked Variety Vista to see if you coin matches either of the two known DDR's? VV Many of the photos are out of focus making it difficult for us to see what you see. From what I can see it looks like extreme strike doubling, however, there may be a few split serifs which could indicate a true doubled die coin. If you do not find a match at VV I suggest that you post this on the CONECA forum CONECA and get more feedback there.

Just a stained well worn, heavily circulated nickel, no mint errors at all.

Way too many photos, just one well focused, cropped straight on photo of the obv and rev and a single closeup of the area you ae questioning is all that is needed. Many of your photos are out of focus (on my screen anyway) but from what I can see in the clear photos I do not see any sign of an RPM, and no signs of any true Die Doubling. The "cap" on the reverse as you call it, is just damage. The corner of the memorial took a hit (or several) from something which left the impressed line and moved the metal from the top corner to now pointing right as seen in the image. Woodies are neat and can look very cool but have little to no numismatic premium to collectors. I would not be surprised if you see that term being touted as a big dollar selling point on sites like etsy or fakebook, those are scammers trying to rip off unknowledgeable buyers.

Lovely example, hope that your wallet is up for the journey. I love the seated dollar series, but with so many examples that have been abused the good survivors are just too expensive for my budget.

You have asked a question that has far too many variables to be answered, however I'm sure that you know that.

1. Sorry I cannot see anything out of the ordinary in your photos 2. The photos are not sharp enough (on my monitor) to see anything unusual with the hair 3. The correct term is Doubled Die, and from what I can see it is not 4. It is worth one quarter of a dollar 5. Only if you have $60 you want to throw away.

It could possibly be a clash mark if truly raised (and not raised because the metal was moved from contact) which can be interesting but adds no value. From the photo it just looks like any of the other numerous contact marks on the coin, but I'm not able to say for certain from your photo. Just as I'm curious, what grade do you think this coin is and what do you believe the value is?

My crystal ball has been on the fritz for years, however, I suspect that these will continue to trend down but not much further for the MS70 coins. The exception could be the D mint coins as those are fewer in number than the others.

If you really do want to go the grading route I would suggest you look at ANACS, they offer a less expensive grading fee. I still would not recommend having it graded and slabbed but using ANACS is easier on the wallet.

It would be a waste of money to have this graded, you cannot submit this under the modern tier, modern is for coins dated 1965 or newer. It is a neat find but not a find of great value, there is a PCGS MS63 graded example on ebay for $65 it would cost you close to that to have this graded.
