Thanks again everyone, especially Brandmeister for your 'gentle' pointer.
I have just re-read the thread, and no, these aren't eBay coins, they're mine, left to me by my dad in that green tin.
I haven't sold any of them yet.
Just trying to get my head around the many layers to this coin collecting labyrinth. And getting slowly addicted along the way.
Cheers

Hi
I'm new at this, but these two lines leading out from the first E in George look like a error to me.
Thoughts?

Thanks everyone
You are right Brandmeister - I accidentally posted the wrong reverse image for 1944 - apologies - here's the correct one
And, no, I haven't cleaned them at all - that's probably obvious. Is it a good idea to give them a gentle wash?
Also, I've sorted all the coins into country groupings in plastic sandwich bags - is that okay?

I've tried my best to take new photos on my iPhone. If they're still not up to scratch let me know - I'll need a new plan.
The coins were mixed up in this old tin left to me by my dad.
There were actually 4 Mercury dimes. I've popped them all in
this time.

Thanks h

I'm new to this and still trying to get my head around grading.
Is there any world in which this might look uncirculated?
If anyone would like to have a stab at guessing the grade I would love to hear your thoughts

Thanks

I haven't been able to weigh it yet, but it is heavy for size.
Thanks for your thoughts. The gold colouration is strange - either gold coating or some kind of tinted epoxy?

This is my first tine posting, so apologies in advance for all the rookie errors I will undoubtedly make!
I inherited a tin of old coins recently and this was in it.
I have been trying to research but am just starting to realise the scale and complexity of the job.
Any information or suggestions would be great
