  2. Post any coin, token, medal or commemorative that you do not have but wish you did. Let this post serve to inspire others. Gold . silver, copper... The sky is the limit. Post the coin and tell a little about the coin and why you think it's a dream coin for you. Cheers and sweet dreams. zzzzzzzzzz
  3. What you are seeing is the result of a badly worn die. Over time as many coins are struck the dies begin to deteriorate. The dies can become misshaped, loose metal, become deformed among many other issues. This is not a collectable or recognized error or variety. Some coins with certain varieties or more serious issues like die cracks, doubled dies and off-center strikes etc. are more sought after and some highly collectable. What the coin you have posted shows is die deterioration and deformation causing portions of the coins devices in the lettering to be unstruck or miss struck. This type of condition on a coin is a very common quality control issue from the US Mint which effects millions of coins. It is not considered an error it is just the result of bad quality control and trying to squeeze every penny out of the US Mints coin dies.

  9. ummm... No the coin you have posted is well circulated and worth only face value if that. Please stop. I don't want to have to start posting pics of actual high-grade coins and make you look silly. Please stop you have no idea what you are talking about.
  10. Take it to a jeweler have him clean and polish the bezel ( not the coin) braze on a silver loop and add a nice silver chain..walaa...you have a cool necklace.
  11. My comment is that a grade on a coin is nothing more than a reasonably educated subjective opinion of the actual condition of a coin. A coin with damage or cleaning is not numerically graded because it is considered impaired. If the coin is to damaged it won't be encapsulated at all. Many coins with very minor impairments get Details grade. This does not always immediately make the coins worthless. Many years of experience are needed to accurately value Details coins. Some coins are still worth buying in Details but that is in the eye of the beholder. So to wrap up just because its Details doesn't always mean its junk its just a real phorensic evaluation of the coin.
  12. Here is another one with coins as the main theme. Getting Even With Dad (1994) - Coins in Movies (brianrxm.com)
  13. Dear John (2010) - Coins in Movies (brianrxm.com) A great story about life and family with coins as an underlying theme.
  14. If the coin is not what I expect it gets returned. I've had a few coins that I've returned in the past years from online sellers (including slabbed coins with badly scratched holders) but most I have been satisfied with and many I have been very pleased with. I do not buy from any seller that does not accept returns or any seller with less than 98% positive feedback.
