  1. Okay, I hope I studied this the best I can. Condition is a little better, but getting there the best I can. I'm pretty sure I might have a match. By studying the markers for this variety I have the die chips on column 11&12. I tryed looking for other markers but can't tell for sure. Thanks
  2. Hi JP, the banks around me won't let me buy unless I have a business. The bag of wheaties , I purchased from a antique shop. I'm thinking about going back and seeing what else he might have. But want to kinda look in the bag to see what condition there in before purchasing.
  3. Thanks everyone, I'm might have blown this out of portion, but seriously I'm actually working hard at this. I just keep studying, and researching to help me preced in the knowledge of coins. Different errors, varietys, and conditions of coins has a big factor with collector's. One day I'll be better to show that type of interest for most collector's. But until then, just having fun, and doing what I like.
  4. If other members feel the same, I will gladly leave. For a few years being here i learned alot. There's quite a few members that constantly show's off there finds. I might be in left field somewhere but I pick up eventually. Now I'm sorta catching on , all the sudden I'm being treated like a few other's that the members had a problem with. I'm actually working hard at this. I really pray and hope I'm not a problem. I apologize, thought this was a forum were you can be yourself and learn by asking anything about coin related topics. I must not meet your standards. Of course people do what they please with there coins, who don't. I'm confused
  5. I'm done with the bags of wheaties, now onto the ones I put aside that I wasn't sure about. This looks like there was a second mint mark, but scraped off as it seems like it was a mistake. This coin is in awful bad condition. Thought I would get some opinions thanks.
  6. Sure am finding like crazy, just trying to find another before calling it a night. Pretty sure this is a rpm-004. Any opinions is appreciated thanks. Good night.
  7. I was wondering what FS-501 meant. Now mentioning it I ask for a cherry pickers guide for Xmas. Hopefully I get one. Thank you everyone. I got these to bags of coins from a antique shop, I have no clue how long he's had them. Sure wasn't expecting a bunch of rpms. But I'll tak'em
  8. This I would think is nicer then the others. Really shocked to find this one. I'm getting low on my bag of wheaties, time to go get a couple of more bags. That's if I come across them.
  9. My bad, I was only looking at the photo with the doubled eye. I went back in and clicked on the photo and seen more to the description of the 024. Hmmm like I said I'm learning. I'm a little slow but I'm catching on. Thanks So this wouldn't be a doubled die. If it was, it would have to have markers to prove it. There's alot to doubled dies. Hmmm
  10. Found this , thinking it's a ddo 024. It might be different, but almost looks like a match. A nother worn coin apologies. Any opinions would be helpful thanks.
  11. Thank you, just something I enjoy doing. Not trying to make big bucks. Just showing there still out there, and what keeps it interesting to be in the Hobby. It's a very good learning resource about coins, history ect...
  12. I believe this is a rpm. My question, would it be a horizontal rpm. Can't find nothing on this. I'm just searching and comparing other horizontal rpms to get the idea what one looks like. I have a little idea, but wanted to get others opinions. Thanks
  13. Thanks RJO, I bought a couple of big bag's of wheaties to search through, really hard to get my hands on better condition coin's. So I do the best I can to get what I can. I've been told on here by a few members, if I find varietys do not clean the coin's witch could devalue them. And by being in the hobby since 2018 getting more knowledge with searching, and reading, some collector's will buy just to have a variety coin. I know these aren't valuable coins because of the condition there in. I don't really sale, I keep what I find. Just so I can say I got one. Really fun doing this hobby and love to find what I can.
  14. This is odd, was this some how cut off during the minting process. I don't see any kind of activity going on around the letter. Hmmm
  15. Wow, this is so interesting. Thought I wouldn't find so many rpms. This I'm pretty sure is a 1950-D rpm 006. Any advice would be appreciated thanks.
  16. Sure looks also close, thought I would get more opinions on this. Really cool finding varietys fun, fun, fun. Thanks
  17. Thanks, wasn't sure. Interesting what abuse coins go through
  18. What's going on with this coin, the reverse has me stumped. Don't know to call it ddr or die deterioration hmmm. Whoever had this coin really gouge the heck out of it. If you need more close up pics let me know. Just to many at once. Extra wheat strall on left and right of reverse. Thanks
  19. Looking at the variety vista 004 and this coin, they both match, but both images looks like it took a hit. im bad at detecting rpms. sure interesting, thought I would get advice on this one also, just to be sure before throwing back in circulation pile. Thanks
  20. I hope I'm not pushing my luck, but this sure looks like a rpm-001. I apologize for how bad the coins look dirty ect.. thank you for any advice.
  21. Thank you Greenstang, it's awesome to find something, still got 3,000 or more in a bag of just 40s and 50s to search through.
  22. I think I found myself a rpm. Looked on variety vista, and it looks like a match -004. Any advice would be helpful. Thanks
  23. Another rotated die, not sure if this would qualify as grease die or just plan out worn, through circulation. Really hard to tell on the older wheaties. Pic's before going into 2x2.
