    Welcome to the Forum. If you mean getting it graded when you say rated, the answer is no. In that condition it may be worth $2-3.00 because of the silver content whereas it would cost you $50-60.00 to have it graded. Also in the future, start a new post for each coin as it gets confusing with more than one coin on a post.

    Not a repunched mm, it has taken a hit flattening the front of the D. Try to avoid screenshots, they are too pixilated when you increase the size of the photo.

    Certainly looks like heat damage. Not sure if NGC would cover the cost of reslabbing.
  4. Greenstang
    It is a regular 1976 cent that had over 4.6 Billion produced. If it has been coated, that would be considered damage. Why do you think it is worth more than one cent? Also in your heading it says 10c 1967 penny, there is no 10c, this should be removed.

    Could we see a photo of both sides of the complete slab
  6. Greenstang
    It would not be a cud, a cud involves a break of the die along the rim. It is called a Die Chip, which are fairly common. Don’t forget, once the die is chipped, every coin minted after that would have that mark on it so there could be tens of thousands out there the same. Also chips are not considered an error, it is part of the minting process. Some people call it a Die Event.

    An aluminum cent weighs .937g so you would not even need a scale to weigh it, you could feel the difference in your hand.

    Welcome to the Forum Hard to tell from an out of focus picture but it also could be a plating bubble that has burst which is just damage. It is impossible for a mintmark to be anywhere except in the proper location on modern coins.
  9. Greenstang
    It is a Japanese silver 50 sen, not sure of year, probably from the twenties. Also your second picture is upside down.

    If you are in doubt about the authenticity of a coin, post a clear photo of both sides along with the weight to two decimal points on this forum and there should be someone here who can help. Don’t pay to send it to a TPG unless you are sure it is worth it.
  11. Greenstang
    The weight seems to be not too far off, should be 26.73g
  12. Greenstang
    Welcome to the Forum. That is a counterfeit. The only 1851O minted was one Proof Strike and that is not a Proof. Did you check the weight to see if it is even silver?
  13. Greenstang
    I agree Not a proof, just a regular business strike minted in Philadelphia. Still worth 10 cents though.
  14. Greenstang
    Definitely a counterfeit from China as are the other listings. All have been reported and should be removed tomorrow,

    I was just starting to reply when I saw that Coinbuf beat me to so I will just say that I agree with his statement. An occulated gas bubble only occurs on solid-alloy coins such as pre 1982 solid copper cents.
  16. Greenstang
    Very sad news. Although I never met him personally, I felt that I new him just by reading his informative posts and literature. Rest in peace Dave, you will be missed by all.

    Welcome to the Forum. It does say “United States of America” and 21/2 dollars on the coin so you can assume that is correct.

    Welcome to the Forum Please follow the "Coin Marketplace Guidlines" posted above your post if you are selling
  19. Greenstang
    I agree Not a wheel mark or wrapping machine damage. PMD
  20. Greenstang
    More SPAM Been reported
  21. Greenstang
    Welcome to the forum. Not a foreign planchet, that is within the +- spec of .13g.
  22. Greenstang
    Not seeing anything but a Lincoln cent with staining. If there is any Doubling, please show a closeup of that area, can’t see any from photo supplied.
  23. Greenstang
    After seeing the new pictures, it is 100% a counterfeit.
  24. Greenstang
    Only if it is genuine, hard to tell from those pictures, the eyes on the Queen do not look right. Maybe there is a reason for them being out of focus.

    This is the forum for buying and selling coins. If you are looking for a grade, better pictures are going to be required, what you have supplied are out of focus. Also crop and orient your photos the proper way, this will help in evaluating your Morgan.
