    It is a very bad shot but it could be a cud?

    This coin was in rough shape right off the press. .
  3. J P M
    Yes. I am not sorry to say I have no Presidential or Sac Dollars. What are those coins made out of Copper Clad? Some of the proofs do look ok but what is the melt value of a regular strike $1 coins compared to a Morgan, Peace or even an Ike.

    At one time the Philadelphia mint made all the dies and ship them to Denver so why were they nicer looking coins. Would not all the dies be the same quality or did Denver juice up the dies.
  5. J P M
    Well maybe the type of metal like nickel, silver and gold help.

    I Think that price is average for that coin. With the green label it may be worth a little more but not much. Verify NGC Certification | NGC (ngccoin.com)

    Is it the 2024 has more of a square edge with very little bevel on it compared to other years., Unless that is a dent on the edge and not just a reflection.

    Correct Mike it does not matter. I will explain my comment. For the OP, There is only one drill mark on the reverse. when you look at the obverse you are seeing the tip of the bit that did not come through. When the OP did an overlay, he aligned two shots over each other at zero tolerance. But we all know it is rare for both dies to be perfectly lined up, so that is why it looks like two drill holes.

    So CK you are saying anything purchased at banks before 1999 will be mostly junk common coins, No BU.

    There are collectors here like Kurt that buy rolls directly from the mint the year they come out. CK
  14. J P M
    Well from the looks of it, Kurt has some rolls. And Zadok also sees them.

    Drill mark for sure, Mike It is not lined up perfect because the dies are not lined up as good as your overlay Tony.

    It is not, The SMS coins were not released until 1966 and that included the 1965 SMS set. You may have a proof 1964 coin but not a SMS.

    2024 scrap metal

    If these numbers are close than PCGS and NGC on an average grade over 1000 coins an hour. That must be a tough environment to work in and meet a quota.

    Good to see you are enjoying the hobby. I advise caution when the time comes to start making purchases. Learn as much as you can and ask questions here before you go down that road. It will save you a lot of grief.

    I think the skin is more in focus than the coin. I do not think this coin is a good example for grading. But if you have money to spend it is your choice.
  21. J P M
    You are still qualified QA. All the good coins are least fifty years old.

    It looks like the reeded edge has been pushed over to the rim. If so not an error just wear and tear.
  23. J P M
    I agree with the others, it must have had a mount for a neckless at one time. It would be better to leave it as is than damage the coin.

    Looks like a keeper to me. I would consider having this graded that would help to clarify the authenticity and the value somewhat. In the end it is, will someone want it.
