  1. I appreciate you sharing this info! I know I have a VERY LONG way to go. I am building this collection of slabbed coins to leave as inheritance for my unborn grandkids. Gold, silver, copper and nickel collections.
  2. Can we overlay these images for reference? because it looks darn close to me. I hate to be a grumpy old man but I'd like to see these images overlayed for reference.
  3. This would be WAY MORE than the 15 degrees clockwise and certainly about 15 degrees anti-clockwise. The thing is rotated to the 11 o'Clock position. Idk man...
  4. I am disappointed with my first coin grading experience but I WILL continue to hunt coins and get the best finds graded. I recently sent this 1970 S Large Date penny in to NGC for attribution. I wasn't as concerned with the grade as I am with the error attribution. I even included a note explaining my find and it's super obvious if you look at the images below. I have no idea why such an obvious error would not be attributed by one of the biggest grading companies in the world. Regardless, I am still on a mission to make 7 figures off coins, errors and varieties!
  5. I recently submitted a 1970 S Large Date Penny which clearly has a Rotated Die Error as you'll see in the images below, however the coin came back without the Rotated Die Attribution. Please assist and advise how I can get this kind of error attributed.
  6. hello Team, Hope y'all enjoying the memorial day. I found this penny while roll hunting. Under the microscope, it certainly looks like a double earlobe, however, it's not as pronounced as other examples I've seen circulating online. Do you think this is worth getting graded?
  7. Thanks for the input guys. As always your professional insight from years of experince is greatly appreciated. That being said, I took a closer look at the coin and I'm just gonna post the pics and you guys tell me what you see. So, in addition to the missing "of" on the reverse, there may be something on the obverse.
  8. hello Team, I know these are pretty common but I've never seen one this extreme to point where it's almost as if the word "of" is missing from the United States of America on the reverse of the coin. I think it's a cool piece for conversation so I'm keeping it. I call it the "United States - America" Lincoln Cent because that's exactly what it looks like.
  9. I'm no expert on this but to me it looks like this impression MAY HAVE BEEN in the planchet before the strike. I could be wrong. I base my theory on the fact that if this impression was made after the strike it would flatten a lot of the more minute and delicate details like the steps, the edge of the columns, etc. Just my "one cent". --Pun intended
  10. The example I am cross referencing can be found on the PCGS website here https://www.pcgs.com/auctionprices/item/1992-d-1c-rd/3101/7033467905972502349
  11. I hope I can rejoice that I've found something this time. This 1992 shows what looks tome like a DDO.. After spending the entire weekend and Monday looking for examples, the closest I found was the screenshot below. Now, the coin I have is almost exactly the same, minus the abbrasion doubling seen around the 9 and the 2 in the above image. The next set of images will be the coin I found while roll hunting. It has the same line down the middle of all the numbers and letters except for the D mintmark. here are my photos:-
  12. hello again Team, Just wondering what to call this find and check if this is a known/recognized variety. I do believe I saw a similar variety sold on ebay some years ago when I just heard about coin collecting. My hunch is it may be a minor error/variety since it's not visible with the naked eye. What's your take?
  13. Very informative @Sandon. That is what I love most about this community. Very helpful and informative. Since I found this quarter I've developed a habbit of carefully inspecting ALL fiat that passes through my hand and if I see anything then I put it under a microscope to verify. I have 3 die cud errors I found doind that.
