  1. Yep I know I rarely use eBay. I just wanted to see if another 64 peg leg was listed. eBay to me is like a box of chocolates. LOL
  2. After I posted yesterday. Something told me to go to eBay. There was a 74 posted in worse condition than mine. Sorry to have you run through everything for me, but I am educating myself more and more everyday. Thanks for the push. Thanks again.
  3. I see that, it’s hard for me to zoom in that one you posted. I Will check it out online. Thank you
  4. Thanks for the response, sorry for the delay, but the server must be messed up or something, maybe it’s my phone but my replies are being posted in other places.
  5. Hello Sandon, sorry for the delay. I have thought about the die also, it would need to be a really warn die to create that thin leg. Also you mentioned the that the Ike peg was only in 71 struck on 40 40% planchette for collectors only, and certainly not on a business strike. I have a 74 clad that’s the exact match for the 71 peg. I also read somewhere that there are other attributes for confirmation of a true peg leg. Those attributes are weak or no serifs the E and bottom of I. Anythoughts, I looked for and couldn’t find anythingabout the 74 peg leg, other than the 71. See photo

  7. The 80 Kennedy’s that I have don’t have an R with pronounced peg leg. They all kind of blend into the hair with no point. I don’t know. It’s just caught my eye as odd. Thank you
  8. This coin looks like it was punched like that. There’s no hits near the R leg other than the small scratch on the r.
  9. What’s the sense of this site to show uncirculated spectacular coins of the rarest variety. Your thoughts on the R peg is all I asked. It obviously has PMD.
  10. Usually you guys are all over it. I forgot I guess there was a server issue. I had to reset my account.
  11. Hello to all I picked up the wrong coin while searching for a Ike peg leg variety error, this 71 shows what looks like a peg like also. Just like a Captain Jack peg leg. It has a stain on it. I don’t want to mess around with trying to clean it. I have check many other 71 and other years for this but couldn’t find anything that comes close. Any thoughts
  12. The big S is in good shape. Could a compacted filling have dropped on the planchette prior to striking? Like a dropped letter. and than got polished down. In the darker close up you can actually see the what looks like polishing marks.
  13. It looks like a small s, closer to the rim you see it protruding out also. Maybe it was rounded like a normal s, but the polishing changed it. I guessing.
  14. It’s what’s not what I think it is, it’s also struck off center.
  15. Hi all I came across this, any thoughts, it’s always not what I think it is, it’s also struck off center. Any thoughts? 😃
  16. Lol, the site automatically filled. Reposting now.
  17. I pick this sucker out because of the toning on reverse, and then the funky looking N jumped out on me. I don’t think it’s damage. The copper plating is still fresh in between. Hmmm any thoughts about this?
  18. Yep to me it looks like a nice keeper with that toning. I like the toning. Your probably right. But it does look to my eyes up close with a loop that the Copper cladding was done afterword’s. Everything there looks the same. I may take it over to a dealer to take a look when I’m back in town. I love the pennies for some reason. It’s very relaxing looking over them. Thanks for your expertise
  19. There’s no irregularities/ disfigurements at all, and it’s the same color shiny red like the rest of the coin. What causes the copper to tone like the reverse. Where it says One Cent on the bottom half is way darker. The rest of the coin is the same red. That’s nice.

  21. I haven’t gotten a red book yet, my son wants to get it for Christmas for me. I’ll hit eagle when I get more time. Thank you LOL 😂
  22. I’m not contradicting you to be a know it all, but I believe it does matter. Some of the damage is from circulation, it’s obvious, but for this to happen to any kind of precious metal or even chrome alloy. It would have had to be under extreme pressure. Just like the minting process. So someone would’ve had to make an exactly produce an obverse nd reverse die for 1962 D. It looks soft and mushy. This could not of happen without affecting the obverse without using extreme pressure. Anyone else want to chime in feel free.
  23. Hello everyone This 62 D is concave on obverse, on reverse shows repeated striking, how could this happen without causing severe damage to obverse? It’s seems obvious it happened during minting.
