I just purchased an 1890 seated liberty dime, for which I am not able to identify the die variety. I had seen the die variety on an 1887 coin (see above). The seller simply said that there were some errors. Also, I verified that the seller had a return policy. Many sellers do not have one. Also, the line in the top photo is where I had attempted to merge two larger images that did not fit on the screen. Also, the M is probably damage. I am referring to the variety of die cracks on the left side and bottom. There seems to be a few minor cracks on the obverse.

OT: This reminds me when we had siler certificates.

Thank you for the bump.

Thank you for the bump.

It appears that stamped versions are somewhat popular and it does not seem to impact the value too much. As for a grade for the seated liberty dime, right off hand, I would say that grade would bedone would be F+ As for a grade for the 3 cent piece, right off hand, I would say that grade would bedone would be F+ as well.

Interesting. It appears that I may have identified a die variety for an 1832 capped bust dime, designation JR-4, R3. There are no specimens on ebay at this time.

Thank you for the bump.

Also, there are a number of die varieties that are planned circulation dies, such as changing the size of a date. Generally, one date size is less common than the other. I have another junk coin with a small date, rather than a large date. Many of these sort of die changes can take place at the outset of a new series. For example, in this case, an 1837 Seated Liberty Half Dime began with a large date, but changed to a small date later in the production run. In this case, at grade AU50; Large date - $475 Small date - $490 These mid-production date size changes can vary in rarity. Also, there are various other planned circulation die changes. For example, small and large rim lettering.

Thank you for the bump.

I had purchased a number of junk coins. I was relisting them on ebay and my protocol is to check the NGC variety documentation. I discovered that one of the junk coins was a repunched date \ weak die variety. This was on an 1873 (large 5C) capped bust half dime, designation LM-5, R1. Perhaps the seller knew of this fact, but it was not mentioned. I would believe that any additional attributes of a coin should be listed.

I recall when the quarters became clad and I was wondering why someone colored the edge with a crayon. Did you verify scale calibration at 0.00?

Bump.

Bump.

Right off hand, seems to be an impact condition. Clips are very distinct and would not include a rim..

Seems to be some corrosion, but the best method to determine if there was a die variety is to check the NGC die variety plus. There is not an indication of a DD mint mark for 1929. Of course, on extremely rare instances, there could be one off errors. United States Categories | VarietyPlus® | NGC
