TreasureGirl Posted October 20, 2007 Report Share Posted October 20, 2007 Just curious to see what you all had and what you were asking for your Booby Head version of the large cent. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art Posted October 20, 2007 Report Share Posted October 20, 2007 As a matter of curiosity are you disheartened because you couldn't find a great specimen or because the prices were very high or ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TreasureGirl Posted October 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 A combination of those two plus it was the show's last day and many of the dealers were packed or packing up. The best specimen I found was $400, which I thought to be a little excessive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TreasureGirl Posted October 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 From VF++ to AU, I suppose... what I'm really looking for is definition between Liberty's shoulder and the hair draped over her shoulder. Minus corrosion and porousness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostDutchman Posted October 22, 2007 Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 i only have one 39 sadly.. in this huge book of large cents i bought... and its low end... do you need a 39 specifically? or just an example for a type set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TreasureGirl Posted October 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 Well the 1839 booby head is my favorite version of the braided hair pieces, and I had wanted that one specifically for the type set... I suppose being picky can be a good and a bad thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TreasureGirl Posted October 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 Cool beans. If you ever think about it I'd love to take a quick look at it, if you wouldn't mind. **To be honest, when I saw that you had posted I suspected that you were gonna start hounding me on buying only the most pristine quality of coin ** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
