Popular Post Lem E Posted October 7, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 7, 2022 (edited) I’m generally not an error coin collector, but I do like the broadstruck coins and always wanted an example for the collection. I also wanted an example of a holder with the FS designation before they went with the 5 and 6 step. I believe this is a Gen 7 holder. 2 birds with one stone. Edit / When I entered this cert# it came up as a CAC coin which I thought was weird because it is too modern. Out of curiosity I checked the CAC site cert lookup and no match was found. I think it is a glitch in NGCs system.

s8zaphod Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 Hello, first time poster. I am a bit stumped by this coin. Anybody know anything about its mintage and value? Apparently a 1936 Indian head Nickel with no obverse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks as if someone hollowed out the reverse, if damaged the value is minimal. What is the weight? Could you post clearer, cropped images, taken straight on as well? Try posting this in the US, World, and Ancient section or the Newbie section, more people will see it and comment.

Lee Donating is a good idea, but it really will be a shame if you aren't able to get the book(s) published. You have put a lot of work, time, and heart into this research, and it would be The Definitive Work on commemorative coins. The sad thing is that one wealthy collector or dealer could bankroll the project with little effort. leeg, Henri Charriere, Hoghead515 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Lem E Posted October 31, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 31, 2022 (edited) The final set of PDS quarter rolls showed up yesterday for the ongoing AWQ project. One year complete and 3 to go. I have enough boxes as long as they don’t pull some tricks and mess up the count. I hope they continue with the same wrapper design throughout the series. I read that 2026 will be celebrating the Sesquicentennial and will have one year designs. Probably something similar to the 76 coinage. Then they are going into another 4 year series for American Youth Sports. 5 coins per year again. The Half dollars are going to be one new design per year dealing with sports featuring disabled / impaired athletes. Not sure if I will go to this extent again after this collection is complete. I did want to do this project though and happy to have at least one year finished.

Popular Post Hoghead515 Posted November 7, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 7, 2022 I decided on trying to assemble a set of SMS cameos. Gonna start with 1967 and see how it goes before I try 65 or 66. This is my first coin in the set so far. Not got it in hand yet. These are the sellers pics.
