1997-1998 Quarter back club VTG coins and a Riddle
Hinkle replied to Hinkle's topic in Newbie Coin Collecting Questions
You might be right, but what two coins do I have to make fifteen cents. What are they called. you got the first one right, but what's the other one. Dime and... -
Since football is here ,thought I would share these. Idk but them are some bad portraits. I know alot of people are upset with sports and my uncle is one . He served in the military and is not a happy camper. He's been working for the forty-niners for quite some time, but loves his job. A few players and coaches handed him some I think defense coins to give to me. I'll definitely share those when I get them. Riddle "I have two coins that total fifteen cents. One of them is not a nickel. What are my coins?"

Is this It, What we have all been looking for.
Hinkle replied to J P M's topic in Newbie Coin Collecting Questions
Yes pretty interesting coin. I'll just be honest, if they were to call these types of errors like the penny on the OP pics a Pac-Man, they would have done so way back. That is a cool looking coin and resembles a Pac-Man figure. Coins like this just keeps me hunting that much more for stuff like that. Good luck to JP on getting his coin looked at. -

I just wanted to add, there's a 2007-D SMS 10c obverse die cap mint error MS68 graded by NGC that looks just like the OP pics. There not mentioning that part of the error on the coin just die cap. Here's the cert# 3237029-002. Hope this helps with any kind of ideas. -

Token-Shell Famous American Coin Game Lewis and Clark
Hinkle replied to Hinkle's topic in Newbie Coin Collecting Questions
This was before my time, doing research Louis and Clark, and Henry Wade I think is the hardest to find. I guess the game was played if you purchased fuel at any shell station they hand you a token. Different set are 1000 dollars, 500 dollars ect... and also instant winners tokens. There were 24 or 26 different famous American people on the tokens. Your right it's an interesting piece thanks. I know I might be out of my league here but I just found these two tokens in this pic being different. The letter L is position different above he's hair . If anyone has any thoughts on this let me know, I love to learn. -
I've been working on this one for the pass few days. I saw the doubling at first glance by looking at this in hand. Easley seen before doing close ups. I'm still baffled on this and want to say die deterioration doubling. But by looking at the E the doubling goes straight down the back of it, and then under the E. You can see little on the P. Also the dot west of the E. Maybe I can get a little info on this piece at what I'm seeing here thanks.

I might be silly on this one too. Could this be PMD or die chips. Hmmm interesting. I think the 2 might have been squished.

Thanks Coinbuf, I'm thinking PMD too.

I was reading and getting other opinions on line/forum. And came a cross someone calling there coin a RIDB that was going through the hair of the obverse. Idk but was researching RIDB and came up that if it is a RIDB that it's not an error but variety. I do a bunch of reading and research through other professionals like wexler's, Ken potter ect... I stay away from YouTube theres so much false information on there. I just figured out a couple years ago to read and get better understanding what I have. But read from the right ones. And of course you guy's in here. Like I said before there's alot of reading in this hobby. Thanks

I looked on variety vista, they only have two to go by. This one is going northwest. But I might be wrong on this whole thing. I wanna say it took a slight hit, but the S is still round where the extra particle is. Hmmm
-
Could this be a RIDB=retained internal die break, or just a die crack/die chips. Any info would be appreciated thanks.

1964-D Washington Quarter RPM?
Hinkle replied to Woods020's topic in Newbie Coin Collecting Questions
I would say MD and erosion. I have one similar to that. That would be my guess, witch I was told on mine. But maybe someone might know different. -
Have you completed a mini set of coins
Hinkle replied to James Zyskowski's topic in Newbie Coin Collecting Questions
I've been working on this just because I love native American anything. This is about mini set I have. I'm missing the 2006 P, but I'll get one soon. I've been basically working on my Indian head cents, Lincoln cents, and my nickel sets. It's been alot of fun and really challenging also alot of learning on the way. -
