I wondering if anyone has figured out the art of selling graded coins. A deal is presently offering more than ten 1980-P Anthony dollars that have a NCS grade of MS65 for $12 dollars, plus shipping. To cover the expense of getting the coins graded, it appears to me that he would have to be hoping th...

Re: Direct from the United States Mint

I got this roll for the bargain price of only $25, but what I'm trying to get knowledge of (from the experiences of others) is the meaning and value of the type of raper. Does this type of raper increase the chances of finding coins in a condition that they don't look like they been put in a lottery...

I found a 1980 the other day that looked like it was shedding it's skin.
I didn't know what would be causing this, since cents were not made with copper plated zinc in 1980.
Does anybody know what this is about?

If no one has noticed yet, you may have your scale set on ounces (0.1 OZ = 28 grams) and giving a reading in ounces (0.1 OZ) instead of grams (28 x 0.1 = 2.8 grams).
Whoops!
0.1 OZ = 2.8 grams.

Re: Editing Post And Posting Images

I found this comment online, so it looks like this venture is a "No Go!" correct?

I know a lot of forums will only let you upload pictures (gif, jpg, png) and not videos because they don't want to host the file. Hosting a video on a public forum uses a lot of bandwidth.

I have to use 400 ASA color film to get my best pics, and the film has to be developed and put on CD in bmp format. I don't have a good digital camera (yet!).

Grading by internet photo

Can the coin in the attached photo be accurately graded using this photo? If so,:

The coin in the attachment has a PCGS grading.
What would be your best evaluation of the grade that it has been given by PCGS?

1971-D MM population of locations

here is a random population of 1971-D Lincoln Cents from a 45 year old piggy bank.
This may help you determine if your 1971-D Lincoln Cent would be considered a "variety", if it is less that 1% of a normal population of 1971-D Lincoln Cents.
