Another nice lot from Ebay.

 

Washington proofs:

1980-S

1981-S

1982-S

 

All are at least cameo in my opinion (comparing to my PCGS PR69DCAM). Not bad for $5 shipped!

 

 

That sounds like a good deal! :ninja:

Here are some scans. They picked up every flake of dust on the 2x2 though.

Not sure why that stupid $ sign is on there. I'm using VueScan (HP program doesn't work right). Any new programs are welcomed.

Went to a coin show today.

 

Picked up a 1962 Franklin BU for $6. Needs a bath to remove some black toning marks.

 

Also picked up a 2006 SAE for $11.50. This will be my new pocket piece starting first week of March. I'll take pictures 1st day of every month to track the progress. Should be interesting. Goal is a P-G grade using only my pocket.

 

Also got two dimes for Dad's Stuff.

 

Edit: Forgot to add in my 2006 Jefferson rolls were delivered to me by my dad today. Along with a Buffalo-D roll. And he snagged me a shotgun roll of Nevada quarters while I was making a deal.

Got my first Brown Box Ike in today, a 1971.

 

Obverse is nice a clean, little bit of cameo. Reverse is hazy around the rim. Starting to see some blue/green color.

 

Now will the haze eventually turned into a nice color? Doesn't really bother me if it doesn't, still looks good.

Nice going! You're building a very nice collection and quickly too.

 

Thanks. I've really ventured away from U.S. coins lately. Picking up lots of world coins for the price of one U.S. is nice. Swiss coins are some that I really love but hardly see any for sale. I bought every one the guy had (50% off as well).

^^^ The reason those coins are so hard to find  :ninja:

 

You can pry them from my cold dead hands :lol:

 

 

Don't tempt the Bunny. When it comes to coins, she doesn't play. :cry:
