http://coins.heritageauctions.com/common/v...62&Lot_No=24051My latest addition. I think I did ok, but I'll decide that when it arrives. You all know how heritage pics has a little different color than the real deal. And I don't really know the extent of the "polish" on it.

Very cool proof! Even though it has been messed with, who cares? Just a nice discount.
Looks fantastic.

Thanks guys, that's my first pre 1900 proof, and I couldn't be happier with it's colors...those scans do the coin no justice!

Thanks Mark!
Here are some of the Mexican coinage I got in a trade on CP, eBay and local coin shops. I love these designs, and am in the works of getting a big 'ol heap of Mexican silver thanks to Jeff!

Top shelf hunks of silver from Mexico - I have several myself and really enjoy them.

I just noticed this, but there is a very sharp die clash right behind the head, it's of the wing of the eagle, and below is part of the arrows in its claw. It's also really interesting that this clash is perfect alignment, while the actual coin itself is not perfectly aligned.

Excellent bust half and nice die clash! I believe my 1830 had a similar die clash, though not as prounounced as yours.
Vfox
Jul 17 2006, 07:15 PM
Thanks Jeff, I couldn't resist picking this up when I saw it, but it was actually the toning that made me want it, if I would have seen the die clash right away it wouldn't have even been a question wether to buy it or not. The dealer didn't even mention anything about it either, which is odd because he normally is on that kind of stuff. It's a shame the face isn't toned like the fields, but its still a nice rainbow coin.

That 1830 half is terrific.

Todays pile of coins. A set of Irish Euros and a handful of bi-metallic coins, a 1959 Mexican peso, a 1893 Mexican 10 centavos, a 1917 25 Pennia (looks german, not sure), and a 1942 Peso from Uraguay with an awesome puma on the rev. And last but not least a 2005 uncirculated set, and a 1962 proof set. (the proof is the one I'm going to carry in pocket, see my "proof set circulation fun" post for more.)

Thanks Art, I'm really starting to get into foriegn coins lately, I think artistically, 80% of them blow our coins out of the water.

Some stuff from the coin shop, and a trade with Blackhawk. Loves me my Mexican and Chilean coins! Also, that's the first stone mountain I've ever owned, and I just love it!

Always wanted to pick up a fractional bill. Just have not seen any for awhile.
Vfox
Jul 31 2006, 11:30 PM
I'm actually going to end up selling that one, I don't collect fractional currency anymore, but this was a good price so I picked it up. $7 with shipping if you want it.

Just noticed something else while photographing that bust half dollar. Not only is the obverse clashed, but the reverse as well. You can see what appears to be an unsidedown and backwards "LIB" of liberty from the obverse libertys cap. This coin keeps me interested I'll say that for sure!
