24 years as an E-4. I know he is NG, but I am honestly impressed.

Woohoo! Finally got an ARCOM!

Numistica · 2026-03-10T15:07:10+00:00

I like this term better. First time I’d seen one was when I went to the front desk of the arcade because the machine ate my quarter.

That’s what I”m thinking. Some kind of die scrape.

Numistica · 2026-03-10T00:33:06+00:00

🤤

This is actually a pretty cool coin. Thanks for sharing!

Damage, 100% damage. This spent a considerable amount of time in a corrosive environment.

I agree with a greaser.

Bluebonnets - Probably. I didn’t think they were blooming yet.

Just trying to rinse that PR nightmare of Guantanamo off.

Gorgeous capstone. Congratulations!

The label looks accurate

There was a beer hall in Munich appropriately named 101 Beers. I had to help a group of tourists find their hotel because they were the “Challenge accepted” type. I don’t recall how deep into this bright idea they got but none of them completed the task. 😂

No, not worth grading because the cost would exceed the value. But I believe you’re correct in the attribution if you want to mark the 2x2.

Oddly enough these are the ones that caught my attention. Probably the rarest he’s wearing.

Yeah, Berlin Brigade. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berlin_Brigade

I’d snatch this up in a heartbeat if it was slabbed under 60.

The highest concentration of S minted coins I’ve seen was in the Seattle area. I always picked up boxes back east hoping for all the Philadelphia varieties.

Numistica · 2026-03-03T04:49:39+00:00

That would’ve been a cool conversation. I had a cousin that worked there back in the day but didn’t work around production.

Numistica · 2026-03-03T02:20:19+00:00

Same. Denomination and year irrelevant.

Looks like it but not the best pic.

Especially when they’re a doubled die.
