VKurtB got a reaction from Crawtomatic in French 20-franc gold rooster
Never chalk up to reason what can be explained by a deep dark conspiracy, I always say.

Blasphemer! The VAMmers are lying in wait for you.

VKurtB got a reaction from J.A. Collection in GSA Hoard Question/s
I always hesitate to give storage advice, because my advice is very different depending on the coin. AirTites are fine for Morgans. I use a lot of E&T Kointain brand Saflips. But I leave mine alone and don’t handle them. The Saflips can crack and expose edges that can scratch your coins if you mess with them too much.

VKurtB got a reaction from Morpheus1967 in MS 69+ Is it a thing?
What a shame. You could make a lot of money re-examining MS69's for 69+ and 70- designations. KIDDING!!! Please don't. But in all seriousness, do you not see that this is what happens when you make "registry fever" a thing?

VKurtB got a reaction from thebeav in Hello, its been a long while, so here is a newp $1!
I think I may be offended that you're not offended. That's the way it goes in 2020.

VKurtB got a reaction from Crruisercharlie in I was not aware that we are in the middle of a coin shortage
Okay, I confess, it's me. I caused it. I'm the guy. I have too many coins. It's 1964 all over again. I feel so dirty now.

VKurtB got a reaction from Hinkle in Ultra Rare 1970 over 1983 over 1974?
Add up the denominations and average the dates. The very rare and very dangerous 1975 and two thirds 36 cent piece. Woo Hoo! And hey! The average coin in that picture is a 12 cent piece.

Take some video of it and slap it up onto YouRube.

VKurtB got a reaction from kenlee47 in 1970 over 1941 Canadian 25 cent
If I have dissuaded the likes of you from engaging in what you call numismatics, then I have done this hobby a great service.
Were you a complete greenhorn, you would be due more forbearance, but you have been slapping this garbage up for almost a year now and refuse to learn.

VKurtB got a reaction from RonnieR131 in Bullion eagles mint designation on census reports
Don't get tied up with getting bullion coins in slabs with label designations. It won't end well for you. It's "fake numismatics".
How will YOU be listed on the 2020 census forms?

VKurtB reacted to Henri Charriere in 1910 Wheat penny (reverse)
The only error I see is mis-placement of the entry wound. Lincoln was shot, while seated, from behind.

VKurtB got a reaction from Johnny Reed Collection in questions - 20 Francs French Rooster 1906
Quintus,
You have revealed you do not understand what grading companies do, or how their people do what they do. Congratulations on putting together a short set of high quality Roosters. That doesn’t mean you know anything about anything. You need some ANA educational programs.
Do you even know what goes on inside a grading service?

VKurtB got a reaction from Modwriter in 2000 Massachusetts state quarter error
I don't know exactly what's up with MA, but the design depth (relief) is very small, leaving lots of metal to flow to the edges, because there's nowhere else to go.

VKurtB got a reaction from RonnieR131 in 1906 Indian head steel penny. Anybody else ever seen one?
Take a breath. Punctuation is your friend.

Darn, 97 years before the first iPhone. "Missed it by THAT much."

VKurtB got a reaction from Modwriter in 2000 Massachusetts state quarter error
Where on earth did you get an idea like that? What about this coin argues for that? If the color is your question, there were many "gold washed" state quarters sold by the unscrupulous to the unwary, and once people learned they had no value above face, they dumped them into circulation.

VKurtB got a reaction from kbbpll in 1953 over 1943 double struck coin
Sumpin's been "double struck" alright, but it ain't this coin.

This is why I, and many others, must continue to push back against Ratzie33's inane posts. I will continue to do so.

VKurtB reacted to kbbpll in 1942 s struck in foreign planchet
No offense but I think the thought process here goes something like this:
1. I saw a 1942 cent struck on an Ecuador 10 centavos planchet in a "get rich from pocket change" video.
2. I have a 1942 cent! Something looks weird on it.
3. Conclusion - I have a 1942 cent struck on an Ecuador 10 centavos!
There is no "headdress" or "palm trees" on the 10 centavos and it has a plain edge, so I don't know where that's coming from.
