They generally degrade into popularity contests, and we don't want a member's "popularity" to have a bearing on how they're perceived by newer members who are unaware of "reputations." Your words speak for themselves when you're doin' it right. And that's way you're a Moderator with 22678 Posts and I'm not. That works for me. Thanks! |

That spike head dime is a good one - I never find anything searching dime rolls so I gave up on them.

Can you believe it, I actually found this sucker in pocket change! I don't even look at my pocket change until I get home because I can't see the dates without my glasses.  I can however, make out the denominations from the cashiers.  |

More subtle, but only three of the leaves are not involved in die cracking:  An American equivalent which has appeared in these pages many times before:  |

That 1818 is gorgeous. With or without die cracks. The die cracks just make it so much more lovely to me!
What's funny about all of these coins with die cracks is I'm not sure why I like them, I just do. I don't have many with them, but I love the ones I do have. Maybe that they're somewhat unique and have a tad bit more character?

And they can be very high grade but also have a 'defect' but the defect doesn't detract value!
