Is that 1938 a d or an s?

Remarkable condition either way.

10halves, I'm anxiously waiting on a pic of that '64D. Reason being, I have 4 of the various RPMs, but still hunting the elusive
D/D north.

Here are some pictures. The 85 and 63 went straight to one of my AU mixed rolls, they were both very clean and had lots of luster but did not have 4 steps. This 63 was also very nice and the picture doesn't show the steps as nicely defined as they are in hand, but I still need to look under better magnification at that one and the 64D because they are hard to tell under just 10X. Also, here is one of the two weird looking coppers I found, I still think its some kind of weird science experiment PMD and not a planchet error, but let me know what you think.

As far as that copper looking cent I found one awhile ago like that and posted it on here they said it was tonning or a chemistry experiment....I would weigh it though just to be sure that would tell you right away...the only other thing could be if the nickel layering was stripped off I'm no expert though

madmortician: that 1973D from a page ago is probably a late die state (notice the polishing lines in the field on the right side of the obverse). I'd guess they polished away the neck too!

Nice 2000-D misaligned die! I've been selling all the 'minor errors' like this I've found over the past 150 boxes on ebay and reliably get $2 for a misaligned die like this one.

Cool finds.

Thanks for the info! It is already sitting in a flip and is labeled, so it will stay there in the mixed coin wood wine box I keep them in until I get a proper box for them.

hey everyone, I've kind of taken a break from searching nickels for the time being, but I did just get a new microscope USB camera, so I thought I would share some photos of my nicer finds while I figure out how to use this thing. Here's my 1921-S:

Here is the 1913 Type 2 AU buff I found in the last box! Feast your eyes!

Obviously a weak strike. But amazing condition for a 99 year old coin nonetheless!

Finished a box:

1 1997 Singapore 20 cent piece. Always fun to find a world coin, but not what I was hoping for.

Now I have to spend the rest of the weekend looking busy rerolling this box... or else the girlfriend will ask me to clean the apartment. LOL
