  1. jimbo27 Anytime you see what may be a counterfeit, please post the 12 digit ID number with it. That is all that is required to get it removed.
  2. Do you have the ID number, I would like to get it removed.
  3. Besides being in the wrong Forum, your heading says 1971S and 1969S cents but you are showing two 1971S cents. And why do you want to spend $50-60.00 to get them graded when you are told that they are worth 1 cent each?
  4. Welcome to the Forum Nothing unusual, just the results of a worn die and circulation wear. Just a spender.
  5. Welcome to the Forum. As stated, there is nothing on that coin that can’t be attributed to damage. It is impossible to have coin bend while being struck.
  6. I’m sure you mean gouges, not gauges. I hope the coin dealer did not tell you they are an error, if he did I would not deal with him anymore. Those gouges are clearly damage that happened after the coin left the mint. Value 25 cents.
  7. Welcome to the Forum First, a Die Chip is not an error. Also your photos are way over magnified. If you can't see it at a maximum of 10x, then it is insignificant.
  8. Welcome to the Forum. Agree with damage, there is no way that could happen during the striking of the coin.
  9. A “Floating Roof “can appear on any year Lincoln Memorial cent making them too common to have much value.
  10. Crop your pictures and that will enlarge them, webdon’t need all that background.
  11. That is a WAM. See how the A is centered between the T’s in STATES and the FG is close to the Memorial.
  12. Whenever I see see "many errors" I become skeptical as it is hard enough to find a single error, let alone many. @Katalina, if you are interested in learning, suggest two things, learn how coins are minted. An error can only occur during the striking f the coin so by knowing the minting process, and how coins are produced, you can eliminate many of these "errors" as damage. Remember, there are many more ways a coin can be damaged than there are ways to create an error. Next would be to go on a website such as errors-ref.com. This will give you some insite as to what an actual error looks like. There are also other references there that can help.
  13. Questionable Color in regards to grading means that the color MAY have been intentionally enhanced by dipping or any other method.
  14. Not a coin, it is a commemorative medallion. If it is the silver version, (hard to tell from photo) it is probably worth around $50.00.
  15. Just a badly damaged quarter. This could have happened in a number of ways but it doesn’t’t really matter how. Damage is damage.
  16. This is the Registry Forum, have requested that it be moved. Your coin has been exposed to acid or some other form of corrosion so it is PMD. Coinbuf beat me by seconds, glad our answers are basically the same.
  17. He was looking for a sucker. Filled in D and P mm are known as broken posts and have little or no premium. There would be 100’s of thousands of them out there. If the post broke off half way through a run, you would have as many filled in mm as you would have regular mm
  18. Looks like an ad for Bitcoin. "Buy now before the gold market gets flooded"
  19. Welcome to the forum. All 1943 cents are made from zinc coated steel. Far from being rare.
  20. Cleaning this coin would not hurt the value anyways as it is only worth the price of the copper so go ahead and clean it if you like. I have cleaned coins only worth face value for my granddaughters collection as she likes her coins “shiny”.
  21. Not a Struck Through, it has been damaged.
