PlumCrazy814 Pillar of the Community United States 695 Posts	Posted 09/11/2022 10:23 pm I am sure there are a lot of things I have not heard of, and I know there are a lot of things I have forgotten, but rusty dies? Is that a thing? From the bay: Report this Post to the Staff

Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 3779 Posts	Posted 09/11/2022 11:57 pm Yes, coins struck with rusty dies are a real thing. It's not something that happens with modern dies, as far as I know. It's the older coins that seem to have had this problem. I know of Morgan dollars that use 'Rusty Dies' as an identifier for the VAM listing. Let's see if anyone knows what the most famous of the die coins would be. I'm going to do some research. I also like that the coin in the listing is in 'Proof Condition.' Being a 'Proof' is NOT a condition! ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clothes Dryers are the Coin's natural enemy.

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 74964 Posts	Posted 09/12/2022 08:33 am Rusty dies is a legitimate term. But that's not what's going on here. Report this Post to the Staff
ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 10563 Posts	Posted 09/12/2022 09:24 am Would be great to have (much) better images to evaluate--obverse and reverse--but we're dealing with a remote seller. Report this Post to the Staff
BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 18440 Posts	Posted 09/12/2022 6:08 pm As others said, it's a real thing but NOT for very modern issues. I'm not aware of a single Lincoln that was produced on "rusty dies". When someone makes that claim it can usually be easily explained by other coining phenomena. Lincoln Cent Lover!
