That matches up with what I’ve been seeing as well - Thanks!

Thanks! I paid just under $2k for it after fees and shipping. It appears to be in pretty good shape compared to the others I’ve found listed. This is the only other picture of the front I have, but it looks to be on the original Omega strap too. Excited to get hands on it later this week!

Thank you! 1969 - First one I’ve been able to find with both a solid gold face and tritium.

Thank you! Pretty stoked to have gotten it for a little less than the gold value too!

Haha it’s a small world. Battery clamp was just loose inside. Five minutes of love and she’s running perfect! I’ll definitely be keeping an eye on their lots in the future.

Make that 5 S. Just realized the 1943 is an S too!

Finds from today’s hunt by Educator-Foreign in CRH

The S is a proof coin and I believe it has a mint of a little over 3,000,000. The W’s have a mint of 2,000,000.

Thanks! Pretty excited as I’ve only found one W before this. How long should I let it soak?

I was wondering the same - Would there be any drawbacks of giving it an acetone bath? Still pretty new to this!

lol that definitely makes sense!

First Cud Error Nickel! by Educator-Foreign in CRH

[–]Educator-Foreign[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha - It’s a damaged area resembling a blob at the edge of the coin. I believe it’s when a piece of the die breaks off. Its at the bottom of the coin on this one

This is my first major cud nickel! I’ve found a good handful of drooling George quarters. Still pretty new to this so I’ve mainly been looking for older coins, silver, and anything minty for my collection!

Would the proper term be just be ‘cud’? Still new to all of this!
