Got this great package from Paola1.  I keep for myself these IHC as a start of collection (going to buy folder album for them soon), LWC will go for my friends who also want to have old pennies. 1909-1930 especially scarce here, they will be very happy to have it. IHC have crazy price too - e.g. 1900-1906 G condition with minor (but making coin ugly) damage cost about 1.5-2$ each. And pre 1900...  More mailings are on the way, stay tuned, watch my trade topic, feel free to email me - besides trading, I can help you with identifying any stuff that has cyrillic letters    |

As you can see, surface color of 1910s and 1907 was killed with an acid, turned them to pink or like that. Kinda ugly. But they are still have nice level of details. I have a method to reanimate pink coins and turn them to brown again really fast, I will show you how to do it then they will arrive. It works with copper coins like a magic, and should work with that ones too. Here's the example how evaporation of ammonia effects. I didn't find mentions about it in english, but I think I just google it wrong.  Edited by flying_teapot

If anyone curious, here's my actual lists for pennies. I have real good work with them, thanks to my foreign friends. Coins marked green are expensive.   |

The 1911 with the "funny face" is a poor counterfeit. Just letting you know.

I just don't have a difference in definitions "counterfeit" and "fake". As I got it, counterfets were made then coin were common in change, fake is Chinese 1$ copies.
Am I right? In russian we have 2 definitions that clearly splitting that ideas the way I described.
