Fred, Seanq, Error Nickel & Silver Dime Fancy Clipped

SmittysSmittys Posts: 9,876 ✭✭✭✭✭

First off let me say these came from a Very Very knowledgable person/dealer/author. These were carded up but not labeled, so far all the fakes were loose. Not saying this makes the carded ones Genuine , but it seems to be that way so far on all except the last Boomerang Lincoln.
So here are two more with edge pics for you to critique .
BTW Thank you guys so much.

    What Fred said.
    Compare the ends of the straight clip on this dime with the ends on that other piece I questioned.

    Both look fine to me as well. That is one heck of a collection you acquired.

    Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.

    Struck off-center on a clipped planchet! That is really neat.
