Re: 3rd Sail Dime?
Yes, there was extensive discussion on a thread or two in the past. It just has the "name" third sail. It's just that the mint put their "cameo" treatment on a blank "air" section when it just should have gone on the sails. There were actually 3-4 small sections of air that were cameo'd when you loo...

Re: 1941 cent with corrosion
I see just a tad bit of wear in the hair, plus the corrosion which will grow/deepen. As it is, ID say AU 50, maybe 50+, but details.

Re: 1944 Canadian half dollar with die cracks.
Try to find the 61st edition of Charlton that has the 50 cent varieties in the back .... Ebay and other places.
Or you can refer to the excellent work found here on the 50 cents:

Re: I think i might have found a gold mine
Were the prices in US or Canadian dollars? Scrap silver price for Canadian coinage is a little less than $20 Canadian so that would be for each face dollar with next to no wear. If you sold to a dealer, you would get $16-17 Cdn. If they were US coins, they would be worth more. If you paid Canadian $...

Re: 1979 double date with doubling on obverse
I agree MD. If you blow up a photo large enough, you'll see all these items that are really just within normal tolerance but not 100% tru. Not and error ov variety or DP.

Re: New variation 1944 not listed.
It's not a variety or any die doubling. It is machine/mechanical doubling caused by the die loose in the holder. The photos aren't clear enough, but may be some die deterioration doubling as well. A keeper but not worth much of anything.

Re: 1967 Rabbit Nickel variation
It's machine or die deterioration doubling, not die doubling. The Mint's QA program sucks.

Re: A little help please
Is there a thin coating on it? It looks like some of the lettering is fainter than the rest. DFidn't leave the mint that way.

Re: 1884 Cent with ?? in Loop of 2nd "8"
It just looks to me like the Vicky grunge that someone didn't get all out when they tried to clean it. Is it hard like metal or like the remaining grit/grunge around it? Whatever it is, it's in the lower loop of the first one as well and light colored.
