PennyGuy started following Census Typo Correction
-
A week or so ago I called customer service asking to have what appears to be a typo in the Census corrected. The representative agreed that it was a typo and would send a message to have it corrected. Since no correction has been done I just don’t want the issue to fall off the radar as I am the owner. Cert # 2006779-005 is listed as a 1a variety. The photo of the encapsulated token on the Cert verification page shows it to be a 2a variety. Any assistance in getting the Census updated would be appreciated. Thanks, Bill (PennyGuy)

2004 Jefferson Nickel (peace coin)
PennyGuy replied to Katniss1's topic in US, World, and Ancient Coins
Welcome Katniss1. One book that I recommend to you is “A Guide Book Of United States Coins”. By Whitman Publishing. Widely available and reasonably priced. It is commonly called the Red Book due to its cover color. The 2019 Edition is the most current. A quick search on-line will find it for sale. It will answer many of your questions regarding US coinage. -

Not in a position to submit the required number of coins, so if you are a regular submitter and receive one of the NGC 30th Anniversary Red Books get in touch. Still tracking down a few of the past special editions of the Red Book. Penny Guy Thanks to those that viewed my want ad. I have purchased a copy of the NGC overprint I needed.

Dealing with the reputation of Wally Breen...?
PennyGuy replied to RWB's topic in US, World, and Ancient Coins
When I questioned the source of the Red Book notation "Restrike" on the 1873 open 3 two cent piece I was told "because Breen said so". -
Curious about the value of a sample slab

I got this one to David in time to made his Second Edition. -
How many US coins were melted and recoined by US Mints?
PennyGuy replied to RWB's topic in US, World, and Ancient Coins
As a suggestion I'd recommend looking at the two cent pieces melted between 1871 and 1881. Some 17,557,941 pieces were redeemed and recycled for bronze cent production. This quantity is about 39% of the total number of circulation strike pieces produced for the entire series.
