Re: TEN CENTS 1891

Photo adequate enough. Sorry but that is a 22 Leave Large 9. Check the opening on the top of the 9, a small 9 is almost closed, a Large 9 is more open. Also if you check the serifs on the 1, on the Small 9 they curve towards the body. On a Large 9, they are square towards the body. Out of curiosity,...

Keep working on your photos.

So what your saying is the holder is worth your 5,999.00 asking price.
So much for the saying "Buy the coin and not the holder"
It is impossible to know how many more are out there that have not been graded.

Re: Super Rare Population 1 / 1935 Canada Silver Dollar ICCS SWL and REAR SWL MS-65

I should have pointed out in my earlier thread that mine is also a SWL on the front, I thought that you were referring to just the rear. Also it is in MS condition but I never get any of my coins graded so not sure what it would grade. Again, there would be many more of these out there as once the d...

They are not all that rare, I have one myself. It certainly couldn't be the only one to exist.
The rear SWL was caused by die polishing so there would be as many struck as to when the
die was polished and when the die was retired.

Re: 1942 ten cents die breakdown

What Bill said plus that is Machine Doubling that you see, a worthless type of doubling.

Re: 1996 $2 German Planchet 2 Dollar Toonie *Broken pearls?

Welcome to the Forum
First, a German planchet is not an error, there were 10 million produced in Germany to help with the

That extra string of “beads” you see is just damage

Not an error, that is the way they all are. Just check others 1/2 penny bank tokens and compare.

It has taken a hit distorting and flattening the letters and number.
Just a damaged coin.

There were also 10 million of the O/D prefix printed.

Re: 2006 10 year rotated core

What Bill said.
Have seen this quit a few times where the core has been deliberately rotated.
