This uncirculated 2024, IMG_0885.jpeg $1. coin is from a First Strike Mint set #3153. Located on the left side of the reverse, there appears to be a chad in the water. It is visible with the naked eye and under magnification looks like a break of the die. As always, your thoughts on this coin are we...

Here is another photo

From my Special Wrapped Roll Collection #3153/5000. The kings effigy is visible as a shadow or halo on the reverse on some of the 10 cent coins from that roll. At a distance the coins appear to be warped in the shape of the head creating a halo effect around the sails of the Bluenose and under magni...

I have gone through my roll of 2024 dimes and several of them have what appears to be grease strike through.
I’m looking for opinions and suggestions on what to do with these coins.
The “grease” marks are not stagnant but move around the sales on different coins.

In order to upload pictures that are too large,
Go to edit picture and grab the corners and cut out all but the desired section of the picture.
Save it and sendin should work.

This 1942 5 cent coin displays a die break extending from the right leaf through the field , between the denticles to the edge of the margin.
Your comments are welcome.
Is there any value to this coin?

Using my microscope I noticed that the beads near some of the 11 corners on the obverse of the 1995 dollar coin had attachments that linked the bead to the rim. Of 100 other 1995 Loonies coins I found 3 other examples.
Your comments are welcome.

Thanks for clarifying the status, I agree that it is a Proof.
Regarding the scar, I’m not sure it’s a scratch as the pics show branching (running up the cheek near the nose and down, near the back of the jaw).
Your thoughts are as always, welcome!

Recently acquired 1986 SP 50 cent piece that exhibits a scar across the face of the Queen.
I have added several photos of the coin with one under magnification.
Your thought are much appreciated.

I’ve added another magnified view,

I picked up 25 50 cent pieces from my local bank, they had been deposited and the teller remembered that I collected coins and offered them to me. All were in uncirculated condition and I assume that since I got 25 of them that they were from the same roll. Upon inspection under a microscope I disco...

I’ve just checked my 1974 50 cent coins and the one on the right has the queen reclining backwards.
Any comments on what I should do at this point?
