  1. Thank you everyone, apologies not getting back to this right away. Been very busy for the last couple of months. Your expertise on this coin was much appreciated.
  2. Hello everyone, I'm not sure if this would qualify as a DDO or MD. Really strong on the "B" in liberty. Took shots from the scope. Coin has ruff circulation. Also a spiked head. Im trying hard to look for the varietys out there but couldn't pass this up without asking. There's really nothing going on in the date or anywhere else that I can see. I see they have listing for the Philadelphia and Denver but not San Francisco. Thanks
  3. Here's a close up pic. Didn't know this was also called a die chip. I need to study more. Love information like this it keeps me busy. And yes it's rare nowadays to receive silver in change. I was totally shocked. Probably be another few years to see that again.
  4. Wouldn't a die chip be a little clump of metal pieces. This is bubbled like a shape of a die clash. Hmmm I might be wrong. Is there other types of die chips than what I'm saying here. I'm confused
  5. I call this the dollar general quarter, got it back in change after a purchase. I'm not finding die clash in the research on a 64. It's happing at 3 o'clock behind washington head. Looked at a overlay, it seems to be the wing of the eagle on reverse. Showing this to get others opinion. Thanks
  6. Thank you, thought it would be MD, back to hunting.
  7. I'm not good looking for minor DDs, but while looking through the glass I noticed the five stars were odd. I took close up pic with phone and close up with scope. I was really looking this coin over a few times before I shared, to get your thoughts. I can't find anything else but the star's looking like that. Just don't know if this is DD or MD. With the modern coins they we're single pressed. So when I see this kind of stuff on these newer coins really make me wonder if it's true DD or not. But most likely MD. Before throwing it back in circulation thought I would ask. Thanks
  8. It would be hard to believe they would put the real deal in a grab bag. The stamps are real ,that's a good thing. The only item that pays for the 5 dollar grab bag so far, is Barry bonds dad Bobby bonds gaints baseball card. It's around 6 dollars. Barry bonds is the famous one than his father. Thanks guys for the help very much appreciated.
  9. Apologies, the weight is supposed to be 24.05 . Need to get some sleep. My bad.
  10. I picked this up at a garage sale, They had five dollar grab bags. The guy said some has coins, stamps and trading cards. So I grabbed one and seen this. It doesn't stick to a magnet so I weighed it and said fake when it showed the weight. That would be under weight alot wouldn't it. Thought I would share, and get any thoughts on this. Thanks BTW, the bag was full of mostly stamps and other goodies.
  11. Is there any suggestion I should know when and hopefully I go to a coin show this summer. I'm asking this because there a couple coins I would like to pick up ,if I can get them in my budget. Pretty much I'll be showing up with just a red book. I'm not going by the pricing just going by photos varietys etc...
  12. Thanks Coinbuf, I was looking up MS64 for the pricing in the red book and other books I have. The books are only showing MS63 ,MS65, and proof65. I know not to go by theses pricing, but trying to get a ballpark figure on this.
  13. Hello again, picked this up for a really good deal. My question is what does PREMIER mean. And my second question there's no MS64 in the red book or other books I have. Would that mean MS64 is a common grade as this die clash error is common on these halves. Just asking, thanks
  14. Hey there everyone, came across this and Lincoln is missing. I did a close up but, the closer I take a pic, the more distorted it gets. I thought this would be interesting to share. My question, is this over polishing die or grease filled die. Thanks
  15. Thanks Bob, I don't expect it to be worth wild on any coins out there. I keep a few just to have on hand for learning purposes. And your right just a bunch of garbage.
  16. Thanks Coinbuf, yeah looking on ebay. Just unbelievable how these are priced. Your right, by roll searching I find more and more of die chips on alot of coins. Pretty common if you ask me. Just outrageous what people will pay for a die chip on coins. I think I'll save my money on something cooler.
  17. Hi everyone, how is it that die chips on these new quarters are going between 40, 60 dollars a pop. I get alot of pop-ups about this stuff. I have die chips on silver coins almost similar to these new coins, and only worth at the most 10 dollars. There given these errors/die chips names also. I'm being told to just call it what the error or variety is. Much respect for everyone on here staying professional on what they are really called. I'm understanding naming a error is just over doing it to get a bigger hype, then really learning the actual error/variety. Then I get a pop-up on the 1969-Ds penny with no FG knowing it's overpolishing die, going for around 100 dollars. When I think back I threw a hand full of those back into circulation, just because I was being told there not a big deal to collector's. Interesting. I'm still hunting, but taking a little more time searching through coins with the new stuff popping up out there. Like the extra V in VDB initial on the 2023 penny. To me it's still alot of fun. Like I've said before, I'm into collecting and keeping what I find, not to much into making money on this stuff. But if I find something special then I might sell or whatever might happen. Here's a 2021-D penny, I'm only showing this because now with all this crazy stuff popping up out there, it's got me looking closer at these coins. I would say this is a die chip on the V, I could be wrong tho. Thanks
  18. Thank you Bob, I figured something was wrong with it.
  19. I'm thinking this is a true missing clad error on both sides of coin. But could this be environmental damage. This one has me in a loop, can't tell if that's PMD or not. Thanks for any advice with this coin.
  20. I'll do that soon as I get the coin back from my sister. It's hers, I have no clue how she found it. But really cool to see something like that on any coin. I'll let her know you guys suggest to send it in to be looked at. Thank you to everyone.
