  1. The item you have posted is not a US mint coin. It is some kind of novelty token. No US mint 5 cent pieces were struck in 2 in rounds or had those details. Especially in reverse. Cheers!
  2. You must have at least 4. One each for bacon, ham, eggs and pancakes or you're not going to make it.
  3. I can't believe it you actually managed to find the elusive "Double Died" Ford Taurus! Incredible find!
  4. Hello and welcome to the forum. The 1834 Capped Bust Dime you posted is genuine and is in VF 20 (Very Fine) condition. The coin has a value of $115.00 straight graded. The coin appears to be cleaned which would result in a VF Details Cleaned grade. Details graded coins are generally valued at approximately 1-3 grades lower (not always) than the stated grade on the holder. Factors determining value of details grade coins include rarity, coloring, eye appeal, severity of issue, general appeal of the coin as well as many other factors. The coin IMO is worth $55.00-$65.00. (NGC GV G-6 $65/ NGC GV VF-20 $115) The coin is an average circulated coin with some nice age to it. IMO this coin is not worth the cost of grading and encapsulation. The coin would make a nice spot filler in any half dime collection. Cheers!
  5. Do I really have to post a certified coin in AU to prove it? Please take a look at an AU 50 -53 1817 Coronet online then look at the ANA Grading standards for that series coin. Its AU 50 BN
  6. 1817 1C Coronet Liberty Head AU 50 BN Ebay $46.00 w/tax free shipping NGC GV $365+ Score!
  7. This kind of thing is hilarious. You blame NGC for your incompetence? I think it serves you right since you sound like a stubborn know it all (which you obviously do not) with poop for brains. Go cry somewhere else this is not the place to complain about your stupid schemes not working out. Please be done with coins forever. That would be a smart move for you and a relief for others in the hobby. Bye
  8. Hello and welcome to the forum. The 1831 Capped Bust 1/2 you posted is IMO genuine and exhibits normal even circulation wear. However, the coin has been harshly cleaned. I would grade this coin at VF Details cleaned Cheers!
  9. Henri "Papillon" Charrière, a safecracker from the Parisian underworld, is framed for murder. Though he has an alibi from his lover, Nenette, Papillon is convicted and condemned to the notorious Devil's Island penal colony in French Guiana — a hellish prison from which nobody has escaped. Papillon did eventually escape and made his way to freedom. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0070511/mediaviewer/rm2170096384/?ref_=tt_ov_i Papillon 1973 Release D. Hoffman S. Mcqueen.
