Q: Hi. I purchased one of the 9/11/01 WTC (vault recovered) 2001 uncirc. silver dollars, about a year ago. It is sealed in one of those hard plastic showcases. Is anyone out there having the same experience that I'm having with this coin?: I'm starting to see red/brown spots forming on the coin's surface, that weren't there before. Could this be mold from the coin being exposed to the terrible elements after the tragedy of 9/11? The coin is sealed inside of the plastic, so whatever is affecting it's surface has to have occured before it was sealed. I'm curious to see if this brown spotting has occured on other wtc recovered coins. Thank you <ChrisTheStar@aol.com>

Q: I am by no means,an expert but im feeling like i may have some very ,very valuable wheat cents....1909svdb. i have checked for the counterfiet marks and cant find them at all. A reputable dealer in town has given a ex-fine rating just through a 10x loup. he suggest $600 to $650. i also may have a 1984 doubled ear. My point is ive done hours of research and study.Will my best bet be to send them off for certification and grading? should they be slabbed? i use the RED BOOK but some of the photos are not very "confirming"? i found your site and have noticed you list lots of valuable errors which the RED BOOK doesnt list. Im thinking patience is my best move at this point.Can you suggest a reputable and trust worthy grading firm?Is there a web site or book that clearly shows examples of all doublings and errors? Thanks ..... <kensumb@datarecall.net>.....Barry

Q: In 1974 there was a copper shortage and the mint made some trial coins in other metals (I think aluminum, coated-steel and zinc were tried). I understand some of the test coins that were minted accidently made their way into circulation. Anyone know the weight of the various trial coins by alloy type? And the amount of each test coin that was not accounted for (and assumed to have made circulation). I either have one of these coins or a hell of a good fake and need all the info I can get. kevin e-mail: <KSByrne@aol.com>
Q: My wife picked up a few Kennedy half dollars at the bank the other day, as she collects them. I was looking through them, and I noticed that the engraving of Kennedy's head seemed slightly different on the newer ones (1997 and 1999 were two I was looking at) as opposed to the older coins. I started looking at various sites on the Internet and found no mention of any changes in the engraving. It seems as if the hair shows more of a part in it, the face seems thinner, and the eyes are different. Does anyone know anything about this? Thanks, Gary Landau <gmlandau@netins.net >

It is a Bronze Coin. One side has a Native Indian with Bow & Arrow and the word "Common" to theleft and the word "Wealth" to the right. On the opposite side It has the Old American Eagle with the word "Massachesetts" around it. The year is 1788.

Q: Searched a number of web sites,
and nowhere did I find anyone offering any way to identify strange/unknown coins
or commeorative medallions. Naturally I am looking because I seek to identify one
-approximately 2" in diameter, presumably bronze, obverse shows head of Francis
Scott Key in a circle surrounded by flag draped over a sword. An olive branch or
wheat sheaf protrudes from a fold in the flag. The words "National Star Spangled
Banner Centenial Baltamore MAryland USA Sept 6-18, 1914" appear around the edge.
The reverse shows two men on the deck of a ship, one pointing into the air, with
the words "Tis The Star Spangled Banner" around the edge. This is the most
unique coin of several I recently acquired, another being a Masonic commerative of
Alfred Pike. There is no date, just "1800-1891" which I assume is the birth
and death date of Pike.
Can you point me to any info? Many Thanks, CW Ellis <alchemist@sosbbs.com>

Q: From: Alzin@aol.com Can anybody tell me - as exactly and comprehensively as possible - which US coins in normal circulation bore the San Francisco mint mark "S" in which years from 1968 up to now? - Thanks! Allan.
Note: I tried to e-mail you but the message got returned. The Webbie :-)
A: From 1968 and up all Nickels, Dimes, Quarters, & Halfs with the S mint mark
were only in Proof Sets. Now in the penny area 1968-1974, S cents were in circulation,
starting in 1975 the only way to get an S minted penny was in a proof set. I hope
this answers your question. Catch Ya !!! :-) webbie
Q: While metal detecting today, I found two tokens. One is a 50 cent token issued by the Pitt Hotel in Lake Elsinore, CA. The other is a good for 10 cent token, with the name and address of F.A. Campuzano, 856 S. San Pedro St., L. A., Calif. If you could be of help with any information about these tokens, it would be appreciated. Thanks, Rick Schramm-- e-mail - <sl90@inland.net>

Q: Mutilated coins, purpose of: I was searching for coins from my home country in coin dealer's cheap jugs. I noticed some of the coins have holes drilled unto them. Some looks like they have been turned into buttons or medalets. Is this their true purpose? Is there other purposes that I missed? Is there a field in numusmatics that study these mutilated coins? and if so, any web links?<Cantilan@aol.com>
Q:I have found a pennie that I could hardly see the date (1994) the back is in mint condistion but the face of the coin is not visable it look as if the stamp (mold) might had something in it. The face is very smoth but you are able to see fant images (head, date, writting). I'm interested in how much a coin like this might be worth. you can e-mail me at <KSAWILDER@HOTMAIL.COM> THANKS
Thanks for your site.

My husband and I have several jars full of misc. change and were
considering turning them all in for cash. I have been slowing filtering thru as I
would hate to put something back into circulation that may be worth more than it's
stated value. Your site was very helpful.
"This is my favorite kind
of e-mail, I hope the site can help everyone who finds it."
Thank You All.
The Webbie :-)
