  1. Why are you calling it a ,double broadstrike coin ? It looks like a cupped broadstrike
  2. Rare is hard to say, what do you consider rare means? How many are out there? We have talked about rarity, and no one has the same answer. LoL
  3. I see all kinds of Jefferson nickels every day and I can say without a doubt you coin has been damaged. We call it PMD ( Post Mint Damage )
  4. Here are two more, I like the 1950 I have been looking for a nice one for a while.
  5. Yes, I saw the H.A.,but I also saw the 69 and that was a question. So I looked it up.
  6. He was not real. It happens on the forum all the time. AI has the capability to do all sorts of stuff HC and why bring this up again. It just takes up Time + Space.
  7. Well hear is a good one, two of the coins in holders that I looked up for reference have no listings. NGC 1622190-002 SP 69 There is no 69 or 70 SP only a 68+ PCGS 10081826 SP 67
  8. Whenever I see one of these sets, I try to pick them up, the 1965 flat pack was $13 but these SMS holders are $10 a piece. These coins are nice SMS, they are almost proof quality.
  9. Congrats Z.. that is a nice Top Pop. Now think about this one. In the future someone who does not know about the contest will look at this coin and think that it was the registry award winner. When it was you that won not the coin.
  10. I still think these 1964 coins are just the first ones off the line from a new die. 1964 50C SMS (Special Strike) Kennedy Half Dollar - PCGS CoinFacts
  11. I would say it has the same die cracks, but I cannot see any doubling on the devices with these photos.
  12. Ok from my understanding the SMS coins were not even thought of until 1966. When the mint got tired of listening to the collectors complaining about no proofs being struck. And the only years were 1965,66 and 67 anything in 1964 would have been a Special Strike not a Special Mint Set. Is that a good start, FlyingAL
  13. I have no idea what you are asking. First. Take shots of the coin obverse and reverse and in orientation not sideways please. Then ask a question about the coin. Thanks
  14. The 45 long was also for the rifle, so you did not have to carry different rounds of cartridges.
  15. I will just hand pick my 2024 ASE at the local shop for the asking price which is normally $5 to $8 over melt. Put it in an Airtight and call it a day.
  16. Can't you see It's a Cheerio cent. Gee, I should have taken it away from the kid years ago. She has been chewing on it for far too long.
  17. It does have a nice rim to rim die crack it is just hard to see. Is this something you wanted to pick up for resale I am not sure I would buy it just from the pictures.
  18. Put your coin on a white piece of paper. Put your phone on a stack of books or a soda can. Zoom in so the whole coin fills the screen and shoot without flash. Flip it over and do the same for the reverse shot.
  19. Slab weight is something no one talks about. Some coins have not been photographed by the top grading company's. If you post some pictures of your coins, the members here can give you a good idea of your coins authenticity if the shots are good enough.
  20. This is a true vice job. You can see where the edge was just slipped into the diamond shape designed jaws of the grips. Maybe not this exact one but something similar.
  21. Yes, sometimes photos can make things different online. When I first saw the picture the damage looked incuse. I agree looking at it again it does look like it is on the surface.
