  1. I found one very similar, I think, omg there are thousand of these things!
  2. This is the coin, not the brassy one shown. The brassy one did have two of the symbols left and right. The weight is .1 oz, 23MM X 1,1MM
  3. Chinese Coin, Currency or Feng Shui? I looked through hundred of dynasty coins and found 1 coin with 2 of the symbols on it. On Ebay for $60 China Qing Dynasty Qianlong 1 Cash Coin Jiangsu Mint
  4. Hey guys, I’m revisiting a previous post of mine regarding a 1943 P Jefferson Nickel. I had noticed a funny hook on the three and one poster thought there might be some doubling on the eye. After reading the following article, I wonder if this could be a 3 over 2 with the entire date rest stamped.
  5. No! Cameos are mirror finish on flat areas, besides there is a fingerprint on it. sorry
  6. Cool, I guess they put that there in lieu of a nice W privy mark! Kidding aside I just bought a 100 coin Denver mint bag of Tallgrass prairie and another roll of 40 p Marsh Billings and not a single privy mark, so now me and a million other people are stuck with all these BU MS coins that you can’t sell. Hundreds on eBay. So I was disgusted and bought a W proof cameo Tallgrass just to quell my disgust. If you know anybody that wants new BU MS quarters, send em my way. Lol 😝
  7. Het look what I got yesterday. (excited) Extra fine details
  8. Now that I look at the latest Pictures, I do not notice any doubling here. Sorry
  9. Nice coin, but up you got ripped man, it’s only a nickel! Lol 😆 I got a couple of Canadian quarters in my last batch from the bank. I asked for hand rolled quarters, nickels, dimes,pennies not federal reserve mint rolls. Got quite lucky, found a very good number of nice coins. And I get to take the rest back to the bank and get more, repeat. Fun!
  10. I like the Whitman’s nation park quarters book. Pictures below. I’m sorry I know you said Stare Quarters but in my mind I was thinking ATB quarters. I prefer the Warmans book for the State quarters too. Very sorry.
  11. I like the Whitman’s national park quarters book. Pictures below.
  12. The last picture of steps in from the 1963 Proof cameo. the one with the sharp steps is the 1971 BU
  13. Man I don't see any reflecting going on, but I do see double letter on my 24" monitor
  14. First i had a nice 1971 Jefferson that has great detail in the steps. Then I have a 1963 Proof Cameo that has steps not quite as nice. Just wondering if this is common. Would expect the Proof coin to have full steps but not as nice as the 1971. Just wondering
  15. Ok really? I’m confused the Liberty and In God reminds me of one of those 1960’s TENSION signs. If this isn’t doubling what is? Maybe just shaky photographer.
  16. So if it is, in fact a legitimate clipped coin, given it’s shown condition from the pictures, what should I do with it? Would it warrant grading. I sort of doubt it based on its face, but despite that, it does have rather fine details. TIA
  17. Wow, what are the odds of finding a 116 year old coin that was clipped and nobody caught it? How is that even plausible?
  18. I had the same question. The answer I found was this: Graded Moderns Today’s bullion coins are struck incredibly sharp from much more sophisticated minting presses. The coins are immediately placed in plastic and bought in large quantities by dealers. Many of these coins are then shipped directly to the Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS) and the Numismatic Guaranty Company (NGC) to be graded. Since the strikes are so precise and these coins have never been touched by human hands—let alone been circulated—many of them grade in excellent condition: MS70 or at least MS69. The same is true with proof coins. They often grade PR70 or PR69. NGC has special instructions for grading 2021 ASE proof coins. You must ship the coins, in the sealed original mint packaging and hope! https://www.ngccoin.com/news/article/8804/2021-w-proof-silver-eagles/ I was very fortunate to have just received a 2021 West Point mint ASE! Which I bought in the first few minutes of the sale which sold out in 8 minutes! of course, I can’t look at it, so I am sending and hoping. Either way a PR69 or PR70 will really appreciate due to the very limited minting of these last 2021 ASE coins. I have seen them graded PR70 for $700 already.
  19. I am only supposing here, but if you have a number of NGC graded coins, would it be acceptable to display them in a wall cabinet made for slabs, or just leave them in an NGC plastic box?
