  1. Those marks are not planchet errors, those are damage from coin rolling/wrapping machines. Which explains why you see so many like that.
  2. A very nice set indeed, hope you can find a home for this as an intact set, that would be very cool.
  3. I agree that this looks more like a strike though. Value for these varies depending on the size and location of the strike through as well as the number of collectors that might be looking to add this to their collection. The condition of your coin will also have an impact on value, most collectors are looking for an attractive example, while not terrible I personally would not consider this coin to have positive eye appeal. That is just my opinion and another collector might not agree with me.
  4. I would not be willing to pay a premium for it, but there might be some who would.
  5. Your quarter is in very poor condition, lots of circulation damage and its impossible to say if this was a filled die or just circulation damage. Filled dies are very common and minor errors, the TPG's will seldom acknowledge something this minor, and most informed collectors will not pay any premium for such minor errors. Your coin is worth its face value of $.25. Having said that, you will see this type of stuff listed on sites like ebay or etsy with huge asking prices by sellers that are looking to rip off other people.
  6. The op posted a 1964 half and wanted everyone to confirm that he has an SMS coin. Once that did not happen he got upset and edited his posts, you guys did not miss much.
  7. Photos might help, might not, also as you are new you might consider some current forum member references if you have any. Just an FYI this is not facebook you can just add a reply to your original post to bring it back to the top of the marketplace, no need for a new post. Best of luck with selling.
  8. As @sandon replied, the comments both for individual coins and for the registry set itself can is created by the registry set user and as long as the set is set to public (not private) those comments can be seen by anyone that views the set. The set comments are at the very top of the set, and if the comments are long you need to click the blue highlighted text that reads "Read More", as illustrated in the following screen shot of one of my sets to see the full comments section. To see comments on each individual coin you need to click on the little page icon next to the date, again an illustration below from one of my coins/sets.
  9. You are not doing anything wrong except that you won't listen to the opinions that you have received. Since you won't listen to anyone why don't you just stop wasting time and submit the coin. While you have only posted this coin here today, (at least under this screen name) you have posted about this coin on the PCGS forum back in July 2021 and then again today, I have no idea how many other forums or social media sites you have been on with this coin. But back in 2021 and again today on the PCGS forum (and now here) you have been told the facts, since you don't like the answers just stop wasting your time and submit the coin. We all know what the outcome will be, and I suspect that you also know which is why you haven't done so in the past. And bty your grammar is atrocious, if you want to be taken seriously then you might at least take the time to write in a professional manor.
  10. I have no questions myself, and I look forward to reading your final work. But sadly, I also know that no matter how many books or articles are written it won't deter the treasure seekers who only believe you tube from their ridiculous claims and future posts about how many they have found.
  11. If only we had any clue what you are talking about, clear full obv and rev photos would be a good start to that end.
  12. Indeed, the lack of any discernable luster and those halo areas especially noticeable around the eagle are clear signs that the surfaces have been totally messed with. @Epic Waffle this is the kind of coin you would lose a lot of money on if you paid the asking price, and the type of coin to avoid.
  13. It doesn't only affect that one letter, it is just more pronounced on that letter. Look at the tops of the letter U, notice how there is a shallower impression that stretches toward the rim, also caused by die deterioration. The fact that the letter U and the letter T show issues on the tops of the U and under the T is a clear red flag that this cannot be true hub doubling as true hub doubling will only be rotated one direction.
  14. Just some die deterioration/strike doubling, not an error or any type of doubled die.
  15. You are correct @Sandon however, there is a work around for this problem. Here is a screenshot of one of my custom sets taken while I was not logged into the old registry system. As you can see I have several non NGC or PCGS coins in this set which are visible, the trick is that you have enter these coins as want list coins vs your inventory coins.
  16. Yes, if you use the old registry system you can add a CACG coin to your inventory and you can then use it in a custom set.
  17. Welcome to the forum, currently any NGC or PCGS graded coin with a green or gold bean can be used in the US coin registry. The registry will not identify the coin as having a bean and no additional registry points are awarded as was the case in the past. And unlike the PCGS registry there are no separate sets for coins with CAC beans. Coins that are graded by CACG are currently not being accepted and cannot currently be used in the NGC US coin registry. There have been no updates from NGC on this issue for quite some time and all inquiry attempts have gone unanswered by NGC.
  18. The internet is awash with information, but knowledge is in short supply.
  19. Neither, for your coin the correct term is a die crack as Greenstang noted. A die crack is where the die has begun to break but is just a small line as it is on your coin. If left alone and continued in use it could continue and result in a large piece of the die breaking off which could then then result in a CUD.
  20. This could be a contender for top pop for sure!
  21. Usually there is a test, but I'll wave that for you.
  22. For sure the founding member, but I've been taking a break for these beauties to focus on more mundane coins.
  23. +2 Contrary to what the op wrote this looks built up on the surface of the coin, glue, paint, gum, whatever. Look at the left (viewers left) around the rim, that area is as high as the rim which would not be the case if it was an acid coin. Then look at the steps, the gunk is higher than the steps, clearly indicating this is on the surface not eaten into the surface.
  24. As Eagle said look at the lettering of one cent, its backwards, not an error just damaged. But just to be correct this is called a "vise job" as in a bench vise or vise grip tool as opposed to the vice squad.
