please, be aware that top photographers have no problem taking great pictures in most lighting conditions. AND that images of coins should always be taken at an exact 90-degree angel from the top. I have never needed any widgets when using a macro lens. Thanks COINSandWine for your support :wink: Y...

Wow!!!! Looks like gas or plating bubble.
But at that size, it's a one of a kind.

Price is always difficult to get for this kind of error.
It's a question of supply and demand.

And there's little sales history for this kind of error.

I agree with dbcoins.

Knowledge is the best "grading" options.

TPG could be only useful for expensive coins to protect both seller and buyer. And could speed up negotiation. But again never buy the holder. Knowledge is always the best protection.

Not easy to see on that pictures Sorry !

Please try to post new pictures with better focus. That will help us to figure out what you are seeing.

Pointing the area with red arrows could also help.

Hi 09rich15
I can certainly ship to USA.
Can you provide your Zip code? You will be the first un USA to get this gizmo.

Unfortunatly i have virtually no margin on Price except combining shipping. I'll see what i can do.

Thanks for your interest.

Newguy78,

to help us to understand the error, can you explain with your own words what you are seeing?
And your description should be supported by the appropriate pictures.

I understand it's the same size and weight as a penny.
Is it magnetic or not?

for this section: struck through grease.





For this one, looks like Die Deterioration. Assuming you are referering to the small lines just below the beads.

M.K. Blais catalog lists this coin à 6$ in MS60.
Your coin is circulated, so that will be less.

MD is probably one of the most frequent error type we can find in Canada.

You will find other exemples here:

It's probably a "Die Shift" (aka Mechanical Doubling).

Is it visible on other areas of the Legend?

A complete obverse picture will help.

Very nice note. You may also check if there's the FPN (Front Plate Number). If there's no number, there's an additional premium on this note. See the reference below for additional information about the FPN. https://www.bwjm.ca/pub_1954nfpn.php Regarding the database, I can't help you. I could sugge...

I just completed the manufacturing of a new batch of this tip/tilt mount. The price is still 16$, including shipping. It's a very useful tool for coin photography. You can safely adjust the coin angle with respect to the camera to maximize the image quality and contrast without manipulating directly...

Remember, we are talking about serial numbers. In mathamatics, by definition, a binary numeral system (base 2) is only composed of 0 and 1, nothing else. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radix That said, that doesn't mean that other SN with any 2 other numbers are not cool. They have less visiblity to ...

I think we need to use the formal definition of Binary Note from Charlton Catalog.
So only 0 and 1 can be use.
