  1. Thank you @Greenstang and @Just Bob for your insights.
  2. Greetings, when I came across this 1944 wheat cent it felt "off" weight-wise. Using a scale, I determined that it weighed in at 2.8 grams which is below the expected 3.11 grams. Is the lighter weight due to parts of the coin wearing off over time? Or could there be another explanation for the lighter weight? All attached images are of the same coin. Thanks in advance for any insights.
  3. Greetings, I number of my 1979 P Anthony dollars have mint marks that barely resemble the letter "P" and more aptly resemble a blob (see photos). Are such mint errors common? Are they valued higher than their legible "P" counterparts? Of course, I'm not discounting the impact of rim type and overall condition re: value. Thank you.
  4. Greetings, It's been a while since I've run a potential mint error by this brain trust. So let's remedy that! Check out the attached photos and let me know what you think. I'm referring to the bottom right area of the obverse and the upper right area of the reverse. Glad to provide any additional details.
  5. Greetings, At first, I wondered if this 1946 Wheat Cent simply had a hard knock life (i.e. damaged). But when I zoomed in, I thought "am I looking at a mint error"? I'm specifically referring to the flattening and shoved inward rim on the obverse. I'd liken it to a pie crust's pinched edges. Before proceeding (or not) with an official submission I wanted to know - what are your thoughts?
