Hi Guys and Gals! I am trying to find out what the Specific Gravity for Radium is. I think it is 5, but am not sure and I need to be sure. I KNOW one of you has my answer. Thanks in advance- Karen

Hey guys. Idk where else to be posting at, but I feel like I over the whole Newbie status at this point, but the US, World and Ancients didn't have many moderns posted so here I am.  And here's my question...

On our neighbors app, coinfacts, they offer values for a designation of Proof-like for the 2019D Jefferson Nickel but not for the 2019P.  I believe both my 2019's shared here to be Proof-Like. In my opinion anyway. What I mean is, either they both are or neither is, and they are definitely way different than any other 2019's I've ever seen. Also I hear it's incredibly difficult to get the grading companies to say that yes a Coin is PL.  

Anyway, what do you guys think about these two? Remember that they are supposed to be Satin Finished, and the fields appear to be  just that. It's the characters that appear PL to me.

I came across what I thought it might be yesterday. Actually had this screenshot in my Google Photos. I just don't like the Reverse is like sunken in and this Coin in my picture is very similar, imo.

@JKK

@Quintus Arriusyou know, it took me a minute to realize what you were implying. At first I assume you were simply a Grammar Nazi and being the granddaughter of an English Teacher that offended me. Now I do see what your problem is and that is that you are a, well I think your original statement says a whole lot more about you than it does me and I welcome the Moderators and the Admins to make their determination of whether or not your comment was from the fingers of a racist fool. Do have a nice day. 

@JKK I agree. The way the area of the Reverse is at about 9:00 is very suspect. I guess it could be a sunken die? But idk. Just throwing stuff out there. It's definitely a keeper for now. 

@Quintus Arriusall I can do was to sound it out, ans it looked correct, not that I've ever had a habit of writing it out. So that is what I came up with. Feel free to spell it out for me and I'll be happy to fix it. As a matter of fact, it still looks right as I look at it now. I wonder if you can spell your own name as I would, A**h***?

@Coinbufthat's a dandy for sure.

I have seen this before. Gimme a few and I'll be back. (Read it how Schwartznigger did or not at all).

Yep, likely a STG. Sucks cause I was hoping for something else.

By the way, sorry I haven't been around much. Karen's world has been in an uproar for about a year and I have had to spend most of my time preparing my most treasured possessions for sale and am now starting to to come out the other side of all that. So I haven't been sorting any change or getting anything new that warranted my presence here. I have been here a few times just so I could smile at you guys whenever I needed it most. Thanks for being there. Whether you knew it or not.

Doubled die, no. Worth sending in, no. Nice 21-S, yes.

I came here for the sole reason to see which of you would make the correction. You won, JKK!!!

Enough dawdling here. Lol! THIS is your Coin dear Hinkle...

BOOM!!!

Good evening all. So I am going through some Coins this day to find the ones that need sent to Wexler and Ribar for Attribution of their Doubled Dies, and which I'd like to send in for Grading if I were a member at NGC (you know, cause some company thought it an abfab idea to send me a credit card, so I am flush this week) and thought I'd share this one in particular with you.  There is no Error that I can see. Just a good looking Wheat Cent, imo, that I thought might be appreciated by you all. 

While not a Key for the series, not all valuable Coins are Keys at all. I've included a screenshot from our nemesis' CoinFacts App showing the graded approximate value of a 1929 RED LWC. I think mine would be included within the given range of grades. What do you guys think? Yay or Nay? Don't be shy, please.

Oh joy. They are making me do it one at a time.

@justbob I think you have it there. Seems perfect to me. Idh the Coin. It belongs to a friend, but idt it's needed cause you are spot on. 

I must have looked at heck idek how many pictures of Coins but I was looking at Roman. 

Thanks so much.

Maybe this is it?

It's upside-down.

Hey Y'all. I am hoping to get an identity on this Coin. It isn't my Coin but a girl is asking for help with it and while I am keeping my smart mouth shut for a change, I totally disagree with a guy that it is a PIUS and he has a bad attitude and I REALLY wanna come through. I been looking for hours and can't find a Reverse-or is it the Obverse with Ancients- that looks like a monkey sitting at a bar. So here I am asking the ones that always seem to come through for me. I also think it could be maybe a Pontius?  

Thanks for any input you have.- Karen

@Hoghead515 yep, just a simple Clashed Die. Unfortunately. I was hoping for more and hate when people get my hopes all up just to have them dashed back down.

@valk1999 You know, I am pretty good at seeing things in clouds and on coins, but I totally missed that one. Thanks! Maybe using that as a selling point will get me a higher price. Lol! 

@Just BobBob ok thanks. 

@Hoghead515 right but what it is? 

What say you guys. Do I have an 11 Cent piece here? 

Had it for over a year now and Only shared it to one group and was told it was just a Die Clash and all the other jargon going on with it was damage. I didn't agree but didn't wanna seem like an angry newbie that couldn't take the truth so I kept it to myself. Until Ken Potter shared the overlays of the '91 a couple of months ago and it's all there. Although about 180° off. What do y'all think? If you don't agree then tell me what you do think is going on with it, please.  It isn't glue or anything sticky that had a Dime stuck to it. Other than some Zinc Bubbles, the Coin is MS+. Oh, mine is the '83. The '91 is the overlay Potter shared.

Hmmm interesting enough item.  Seems odd you would be having this much difficulty finding info on the person

@scopru Right. I think because it is such a common name in Hungary. Finding the right face to go with the name has so far eluded me. 

I did come up with this the other day. Am now trying to find out what made the man deserve his own token for his 80th bday.

@Moxie15 thanks a bunch for your effort. The language thing is holding me back as well.
