Re: Grading opinions on Newfoundland 5 cent silver
Too much wear in the hair for AU. I think XF and the Newf Reverses were always struck softly or weak from what I heard

Re: Charlton Canadian Coin Catalogues
As soon as something hits the streets, whether coin site or coin book, that says something is scarce or hard to find, then coins come out of the woodwork and prices drop. It's all supply and demand.

Re: 1891 Canada large cent
I'd say XF40+ with some environmental damage (start of green on the bust and dark spot on the Rev.) In my old Trends, it shows $200 Cdn, but you couldn't sell it for that.

Re: 1891 Canada large cent
It's a SL/SD Obv 3. The creased chin will tell a 2 or 3 from a 1. Then look at the E's and the Obv 3 will have the long vertical crosshatch inside. Yours does not have the R/P'd or longer arms on the T, like some of the scarcer regular LL/LD ones have; they are normal. Nice coin.

Re: 1936 dot Canada penny
Your "dot" is in the wrong place, the wrong size and the wrong shape. Every year, there are 5-6 folks who thought that they found the pot of gold but find that they didn't. Usually they find that they are just die chips, rust pits, or manual addition. Yours looks like a small die chip or pit in the ...

Re: 2009 Nickel Die Rot
It looks like someone drove a chisel or a screwdriver through it, since it has one flat level section. I think a garage or play experiment it that was then buried to rust it up. Not even worth the 5 cents now.

Re: 1964 D, RPM American Nickel info
From the photos, I se nothing. Are you referring about a R/P'd mintmark? I don't see it, maybe just a tired die and/or postmint damage.

Re: 1766 Irish half penny
Well, in y references for the 1766, there were no angular sides. Your coin doesn't have them symmetrical either. I think the angular rim/edge is post mint with someone just playing around. According to Krause, it's an Obv 1.

PMD. It looks like it was on a gravel or asphalt road for a little while or some other place.

Not worth getting graded, but nice Unc clip. You can plainly see the Blakesley effect at 180 degree opposite

Re: 1966 Silver Dollar Small or Large Bead
From the photo it looks like it could be a small bead, but the I in Regina not exactly on the bead. It looks like it's just a little to the right of the bead, but still connecting with the bead. But it has been harshly cleaned, so no idea of value. From the wear, exclusive of the cleaning scratches,...

A great CN Journal article
The Dec '24 issue of the RCNA CN Journal has a great article by the Vicky Large Cent King, Rob Turner. Even late arriving, due to the postal strike, it was well worth the wait. Titled "A Numismatic Unicorn", it is a technical evolution of what was going on at the Mint from 1881 into 1882, trying to ...
