  1. More pictures best I can do with this camera. Added another area of interest on this coin. In the area of the mouth there appears to be small object, maybe a piece of wire that appears to be imbedded in the metal
  2. Found what appears to be heavy doubling in several areas of this coin Very pronounced in “In God We Trust”, the mint Mark, off the profile of the face and in Liberty. Still new to this sonI think this is doubling but wanted opinions and comments.
  3. Came across this penny today Photos attached. I would appreciate input on condition and possible value . Coin appears to be in pretty good shape considering it’s age
  4. Thank you for this info. Helps alot to understand the basics. Ill keep looking
  5. Didn't mean to imply it was one of a kind, just did not understand the process or what can be considered a minting error vs an acceptable coin. So to help me understand, a weak strike causing an irregular coin, weather it be 1 or 10,000+is different than a cut planchet which would be one of a kind due to a minting error. Not arguing just want to gain knowledge from more experienced people. I appreciate all the input from everyone as I learn the rop es of this hobby. I can see if this was a weak strike that there may not be another similar to it. This makes more sense to me than a mispolished die.For my information how different does a coin have to be to be considered an error? Value or lack of for this coin is irrelevant justdon't ant to waste your time in the future for regualr coins.. Thanks all for your input!
  6. So I am to understand that a possible one of a kind would hold no additional value As a newbie this seems counterintuitive to what I would want to find but.being new t o collecting I don't know what makes a coin valuable or not. Can you further explain why this would add no value?
  7. how many would have to be found to it be considered a variety and howdoes that process work
  8. These marking are not present on any other 2007 Utah quarters I looked at. I have two others and none of this is present on them
  9. what first caught my eye was the area directly below the railroad tracks. it appears like there is an inverted mountain range stamped on this coin. If you then look at the darker photo there appears to beallthje a discolored area surrounding the stamped image. What could cause this?
  10. I found several areas on thus coin that raises questions about what went on with this coin.. Double Die or some other mint errors. Whats everybodys opinion
  11. Found this in my change yesterday. Wondered about grading and value
  12. Attached are pics of a 1971 D Washington Quarter. It appears to me that this is aDDR. I see lots of doubling around United States of America. Input and opinions needed as I am new to this
