Re: 2024 Loonie, branch in the water

It's over the top of the design, so it's not a D/C.

Re: 2024 10 cent Die Clash On Reverse

Weren't some of the '21's colored/painted by the mint, the sails and date? It looks to me like residual blue paint from past pressings

Re: 1958 Canadian 1 cent (penny) in silver

Yes, what was posted is correct. We always get 3-4 inquiries like this every year. Just plating or coating.

Re: I have a strange one for you guys.

Unless you are talking about 1974, I see no numbers, only a coin that has been in acid or coated with it. Or possibly, left in Coca-Cola for weeks. The surface would be the same

Re: Another 1894 large cent

From the photo, yes, it looks like a fat 4. I'd say it's XF-40 and a nice coin.

Re: 1962 5 cents doubling both sides of coin

I agree. It's machine or mechanical doubling (MD) and adds no value to the coin.

Re: 1961 Jefferson Nickel

Not doubled. It's a tired worn die and it's called die deterioration doubling.
