Coinbuf

I have never been a subscriber myself, ignorance is bliss.

Possible, in the full photo it looks like the 5 crossbar looks doubled but in the closeup that area looks stained and does not show any sign of the doubled crossbar.

The coin you have on the scale is a large date and is worth $.01. The first coin you posted is a small date zinc coin also worth $.01.

Damage from a coin counter would be my guess, usually its more towards the rim than it is on this coin but it is the most plausible explanation.

As @RWB said only if there is a database of that information already established which you have access to, this is the problem I think you will have in executing a successful search. Sure that info is somewhere in the memory banks of the TPG's computers but you don't have access to those files. I really don't see what you will gain from this exercise anyway, many (if not most) examples of errors are not certified so there is no data to search for.

+1, also please don't put up several threads on the same coins in different sections of the forum. This also makes things very confusing, all the coins you have posted are large dates.

Looks like a zinc coin, do you have scale to show that the coin weighs what a copper coin should?

@JKK is correct a fire safe is not completely fire safe, it is rated to last an amount of time up to a certain intensity/temperature level. The effectiveness or ineffectiveness of fire safes was well demonstrated in 2018 during the Paradise CA fire. A member of the forum ats was unfortunately a victim of that fire where his house was totally destroyed by the fire, here is a photo he posted of the contents of one safe after he was allowed to return to his home. Granted this was a very intense fire but as you can see from the photo things were in bad shape, he also had another safe that had a lower fire rating and there was nothing but ashes in that safe. I'm not saying that you should not get one, just be aware that nothing, not even the very best safe is truly fire proof.

If you read my post I noted that it may be a plating bubble, that was a very common problem in the first few years when the mint switched from copper to the current zinc with copper plating in 1982. Plating issues take many forms including raised bumps and in this case a linear form. But again as I said the fact that this coin's condition is so poor and that it has been environmentally damaged makes it unsuitable for grading even if it was a true error.

Tooling can mean a few different things, I'm not familiar with your coin type so I cannot comment on why it was determined to be tooled. Hopefully another member can explain in more detail.

Perhaps a plating bubble, perhaps just damage, but either way its not a mint error and the condition of the coin is so bad its unlikely to be graded. It would most likely sent back as not gradable due to environmental damage.

Built in green level acceptance Has the current reverse hologram so I'm wondering if it was an ink issue where the label changed color because it was subjected to heat and or high humidity.

The nickel has been hit with a sander or grinder, it did not leave the mint like that.

I do not see anything in your photos other than a normal cent, copper cents are not 100% copper. Its made from .95% copper and .05 zinc, so if there is a slight silver color to the edge it is the zinc showing. The weight confirms it is a normal cent planchet as those should weigh 3.11 grams

Look closely at the photo, the coin is posed or photoshopped into the holder. Of note the coin is not in the prongs, this photo is bogus in every way. To the op, shopping for coins on facebook is an almost guaranteed way to get burned.

All are large date

The scenario you have poised is not hard at all unfortunately, in fact its very easy to do. I'm sure there has been fraud in the registry before but thankfully it is not widespread as most people are more honest than dishonest. It has been a few years but I seem to remember that someone got caught doing this, I do not recall the specifics of who or what or even what happened to that person. I would expect that NGC would delete any sets and ban the person found responsible of doing this. I can say that NGC does not require members to provide proof of ownership unless another registry member also claims to have the same coin. When that happens NGC will contact the member and ask for him/her to provide proof of ownership before any transfer of ownership occurs. There are many valid reasons why a coin might be claimed by two registry participants, a very simple one is that a member may have passed away and his family may not be aware of his participation or know how to remove his sets from the registry. I saw this happen about 5-6 years ago with a high level Lincoln set, I and another Lincoln collector noticed the coins were being auctioned off yet the sets were still listed on the registry. We both contacted NGC and provided the auction info for a number of the coins from that set. Another very real and somewhat common possibility is that someone has a typo when entering a coin into their inventory/sets. Very simple and easy to correct but can cause issues if the real owner is unable to respond to the NGC request for ownership in time. As a registry participant I hope and expect that the other registry members are honest and act honorably, but I also know that there is sometimes a bad apple in the group.

I have looked over the site a few times but have not bid on anything. If I was trying to sell some coins through an auction firm I would use Great Collections as I have used them before and know what to expect in the way of service

Everyone has been very helpful and has taken time to answer your questions correctly, you should holster the hostility. And just for your information NGC does not sell coins they authenticate and grade them, and I can also guarantee you that the photo you posted of the coin in someone's palm (the wrong way to hold a coin) is the only small date of all the photos you have posted.

Same section of the forum where you replied to a question on silver eagles a few hours ago.

You will need to post some photos, one photo of each side of each coin cropped, before we can tell you anything.

I have both bought and sold through GC, Ian is very easy to work with and everything went super smooth for me. I have not bought much in recent years as his traffic has increased so have the prices that bidders are paying, to the point that I get blown out on most everything, great for sellers not so much so for buyers. And just a thought if you have a price you would like to get then putting them on the buy-sell- forum here first may be an option. Certainly not the number of eyes that you will get from GC or ebay but if you sell one there are no fees either, won't hurt to try for a few days before you attempt to action them off.

You do not have the real deal at all, do you have any reference material on what a real one looks like?
