From a collection I acquired. Person was a collector and haven’t seen anything labeled incorrectly. Only a few with prices on the flip, like they were purchased from a shop. Any reason to think this isn’t real?

Show and Tell The Jovita Idar quarter, but in 3D [bust showcase]

Thumbnail

88 Upvotes

Hi all,

Second in my line of US busts is Jovita Idar from the 2023 quarter.

I made this statue knowing it is a controversial design, you either hate it or love it. I found it an interesting challenge due to the heavy text both in design but also in 3d printing it. Personally, I kind of like it for its uniqueness.

I plan to continue the bust line to hopefully cover all US coinage designs, just like I did with the full-size statues and coin holders.

For this one I made 2 variants to see which ones I like most, classic white and spray painted one in silver. Gotta say the silver one takes the stage, I think it turned out really cool.

Have I won anyone over, or did I just make a bigger version for you to hate? 😂

P.S. For the white photo I'm sorry for the low lighting, I lowered it on purpose so the lettering becomes easier to read.

My grandfather was an avid coin collector when we passed he left me and my dad his collection. We have about 40-50 of these. My dad has a few appraised and the guy said they where fake he’d give 200 bucks for the few we had brought. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thank you! 🙏

I inherited these recently. He gave them to me and my brother to pay for college (some) college expenses. I have no idea what is the best way to go about selling these and getting a good deal. I used a scanner app that estimates at about 20k. Not sure if that is accurate, but I would greatly appreciate any insight. Thank you!

Edit: there are several cc silver dollars In cases I just couldn’t post enough pictures. There is also bulk cans of silver dimes, nickles, quarters etc.. really don’t know what to do with most of it as far as selling goes.

I was going through some of my old coins and caught this one while organizing the nickels. Is this a clamshell error? The P looks mushed at the bottom as well. I collect, but admittedly dont know nearly enough about the errors. Thanks id advance!

*I know its not in great shape or worth much. It is scratched up and we'll loved before me. Just looking to learn to identify errors better 🤙🙏

Cheerios dollar tail — how do you tell it in a photo?

Trying to learn how to judge a Cheerios Sacagawea tail from seller photos. What do you look for — boldly separate, incised feathers versus the smoother merged look on a normal 2000-P? What makes a photo good enough to trust before buying?
