    Welcome to the Forum What you have is a counterfeit so it is ungradeable.
  2. Greenstang
    Welcome to the Forum. Not off enough to warrant any premium. It is worth bullion value only.
  3. Greenstang
    PMD A rim that was struck in collar cannot be that damaged during the striking of a coin. The rest is just damage.

    I have asked a moderator to move this to the proper Forum. As far as your Wheat cent goes, could you supply a complete photo of the Obverse and Reverse. Hard to tell when only a partial photo is supplied but my guess right now is that it may be acid etched which would reduce the weight. Complete photos would help in determining the cause.

    Welcome to the Forum First, coins are not printed, banknotes are printed. Coins are struck or stamped. Yes, it looks like someone has tried to cut it, PMD.
  6. Greenstang
    Woods beat me to it but he is correct, that is the standard reverse. Only worth 1 cent in that condition.
  7. Greenstang
    “450$ but says is gone give 215” That in itself should raise a red flag.

    If I remember correctly, those were sample slabs that NGC had given out at a coin show or shows. I believe the numbers may have just been random. Perhaps NGC or someone else could shed more light on this.
  9. Greenstang
    That is a four figure coin if genuine. How much were they asking?
  10. Greenstang
    Definitley a fake. The face is not even close to a genuine one.
  11. Greenstang
    No

    Pancakez1981, please start a new thread for each coin. It gets confusing when their is more than one on a thread. To answer your question on the 1994D cent, that is called Split Plate Doubling, another of the worthless types of Doubling. The 1958 D also is not a Doubled Die.
  13. Greenstang
    Yes they are die cracks. The four corners on the Lincoln Memorial are a common area for die cracks

    Again, posted in wrong Forum, again, maybe a moderator will move it. To answer your question, that is called a counterstamp. There are many variations but as this was done after the coin was struck, technically they are considered damage although some people do collect them.
  15. Greenstang
    This is the Registry Forum, maybe a moderator can move it. To answer your question, all 1988 cents are a WAM.
  16. Greenstang
    Welcome to the Forum Probably the most asked question on any coin forum. Yours are all Large Date. The no mm means they were struck in Philadelphia.
  17. Greenstang
    Welcome to the Forum Agree with Just Bob, there were over 220 million struck by the Philadelphia mint. Just too common unless a high grade to be worth more than 25 cents.
  18. Greenstang
    Can’t be, they stopped hand punching dies in 1989. Looks like it has just taken a hit.
  19. Greenstang
    A die crack would be raised, that looks incuse. As Coinbuf stated PMD
  20. Greenstang
    There are 8 if you count the copper 1982D Small Date but I doubt you will find a slot for one in any coin holder. correct typo
  21. Greenstang
    That is what is known as a misaligned die (MAD) on the Reverse. The Obverse looks normal.. Is It is not off enough to have any premium. There is no Doubling on your coin. Also please do not hold coins in your hand. Lay it on a flat surface to shoot your photos. If that was a valuable coin, your fingerprints would greatly reduce the value.
  22. Greenstang
    Please start a new posting for each coin. It only causes confusion when there is more than one coin on a post. Also to answer your question, both sides of the coin will have to be shown. ( This should be done in all cases)
  23. Greenstang
    Don't know where you got your info from, but the normal weight for that dime is 2.27g so you are .01g over which is well within spec.
  24. Greenstang
    You cannot have a rim damaged like that during the striking of the coin. PMD
  25. Greenstang
    I'm not seeing anything either.
