    1862 A to RIGHT of Lighthouse Rocks are clearly there. 
  2. Bronze & Copper Collector
    1862 A to LEFT of Lighthouse - Nearer to the Lighthouse  Better quality, faint, but the rocks are there.

    1862 A to LEFT of Lighthouse - Nearer to Rim Poor quality, difficult to see, but I believe the rocks are there.

    Genesis 2:22-23 22 Then the LORD God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man. 23 The man said, “This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called ‘woman,’ for she was taken out of man.” I just want to know if the "WOKESTERS" plan to rewrite the Bible in order to make it "Politically Correct". Perhaps they intend to challenge the ""Word" of GOD"

    As the years pass, we all, unfortunately, tend to lose some....

    The only variants in the dates mentioned that I am aware of at present are as follows: Four for 1911. Both Obverses and both Reverses intermixed. (Gouby A&a, A&b, B&a, and B&b). Two for 1912, listed on Michael Gouby's website as 2 date spacings: Date A "Centre of 2 to bead, 10 beads" Date B "Centre of 2 to gap, 9 1/2 beads" Re: 1925, I am aware of only the two listed in Freeman, F-404 (1& A, Gouby B & A), and F-405 (2 & B, Gouby C & B).

    I agree, I also see the slight indent of the W of LCW ...
  8. Bronze & Copper Collector
    Appears to be the same coin to me.

    I remember seeing advertisements for "Certified Genuine Facsimile Autographed Baseballs". Does that translate to that they are guaranteeing them to be fakes? Or Genuine Fakes?? It's Ludicrous. And people buy them.

    I would tend to concur with you on your determination. My comparison of certain diagnostic indicators led me to that conclusion too. I'm not sure what the current known population is, so I will defer to your numbers. For the census, currently i have two obverse 8's, as well as two obverse 7's which include the discovery coin.

    I presume that the coin in question is the 1861, which, although admittedly it does look like a P/F, I would tend to doubt that it is a HALP penny. Although it is known with both obverses 6 and 7; to the best of my knowledge it is only known on reverse G. The coin in question is a reverse E (note the LCW). I would suspect that it is some sort of gunk at the tip of the crossbars of the F in HALF. For what it is worth, I hope that I am proven incorrect, or that I have been looking at wrong coin. The best scenario would be that it is a new discovery (those are always nice). Best of Luck

    $240,000 😀 The Edward V111 brass threepence sold for $140,000 😯 Actually Pete, the Edward VIII brass 3 pence, sold for $144,000 ($120,000 + $24,000). You're correct with the 1933 Penny, $240,000 ($200,000 + $40,000)

    Welcome

    Or the 1922 "Plain" US cent.

    Unless it's a trick of lighting and imaging and not really there; all that I think I see is a hint of the L & the A. Possibly my line is angled incorrectly as all I can claim to see is 2 partial letters. Of course there is always the possibility of a different die variety. Unfortunately we may never be sure.
  16. Bronze & Copper Collector
    Blocked die is certainly a possibility.
  17. Bronze & Copper Collector
    I've examined the images and I believe the LAUER is on the coin, very faint and very worn. I've tried to both underline and circle the most visible portion, that of the LA of LAUER.

    There is only one "Groucho"! Or, as he was introduced on "You Bet Your Life", the quiz show that he hosted. Here he is, the one, the only, Groucho Marx. Groucho Marx of Marx Brothers fame. Although probably most famous on his own in later years.
  19. Bronze & Copper Collector
    Interesting.. If it were an overdate, it should be visible under direct visual examination. As I assume from your reply that it is not, then it probably is just a trick of the lighting. Pity.....
  20. Bronze & Copper Collector
    Do I detect signs of a possible 6 over a higher 6? Or is it just a trick of the enlargement??
  21. Bronze & Copper Collector
    Another image of the obverse.
  22. Bronze & Copper Collector
    Reverse
  23. Bronze & Copper Collector
    Would someone possibly please identify the imaged coin and possibly give an estimated value. This is not my coin. I am researching for an acquaintance. I do not have the coin in my possession and these are the only images that I have. With no actual knowledge of the coin, I would hypothesize that it might be a Greek Tetradrachm or something in that family. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

    Remember the PCGS farthing mule debacle from about 15 years ago??! Rather than admit an error, they essentially created a new variety...
  25. Bronze & Copper Collector
    That WAS the joke!
