  1. She's a beauty my friend. Love those 2 cent pieces. I'm starting on a collection of them. I usually been working on a quarter collection but I've been cheating on it a little and grabbing one of these here and there. Very beautiful design in my opinion. Got alot of love for these
  2. Thank you for researching that for me. That clears it up. I thought it may have took a hit and I was examining it earlier and was stumped because it didn't look like it took a hit. That clears alot up for me. I appreciate it.
  3. Very nice man. That's an awesome find.
  4. I think @Lem E is more into the business strikes.
  5. I got to noticing on mine the D in the word UNITED looks funky compared to the other one posted. It must have got worn off or something. Something crazy about it unless it's just me.
  6. Same here. I've seen that on a few of these.
  7. Not sure on the one Alex posted. On the one I posted it was a repunched date. The entire date was repunched over top the old date.
  8. I went ahead and decided on having this one certified. Some people may think im crazy but it was a decision I think is right for me and my reasons. @DWLange since I chose variety plus does that automatically mean the variety will be mentioned on the label of the slab? I used an online submission form so is it ok on the line item I filled out I just put VP 006 In the Variety Plus box ?
  9. Yep. Only worth 25 cents. Never hurts to ask if your not sure though.
  10. Once you look at more and more coins you will notice there will be several like that.
  11. Got some fish hooks processed thru same place 3 times.
  12. Mike beat me to it by 3 or 4 seconds
  13. Looks like it took a hit of some kind and displaced the metal over to the I.
  14. I got a couple rolls that had some washers in them.
  15. I think Joseph Menna does alot of it now. But he uses that digital engraving. Doesn't put the talent and love into it that those old engravers did. I like the old designs. Those guys actually used skill to carve the designs out instead of using a computer.
  16. I do know that is a very very beautiful coin. I love those colors in it. That thing is sharp.
  17. Is that doubling on the reverse. Kinda favors strike doubling.
  18. Alot of the ones alot of people post is strike doubling also. It's very hard to see alot of times. Some of the true doubling is hard to see without a loupe or something.
  19. That's very cool. That's a beautiful coin. And my birth year.
  20. Thank you my friend. I really like this coin. I think I'll have it certified. That way it will be a little more special when I pass it down to my children.
