Some Nevada silver arrived yesterday....

Anaconda coins had a silver proof version of this medal listed on Ebay not too long ago.

 

Your copper version looks better.

Plus it cost only 10% of what Anaconda wants for theirs.

This arrived yesterday. You'll be seeing her again in the next PCI.

but looks like a filled Die on reverse.

Its not a filled die, this is a weak strike. The V-2,LM-1 variety (15 stars) is almost universally found with weak centers, both obverse and reverse, just like this specimen.

These are difficult and expensive coins to find nice. I still don't have one after years of looking, though I'm looking specifically for a 1796.

 

been saving my pennies for one that looks as "aged" as the 25c on my avatar.  I really like the dark fields and lighter devices on a circulated coin.

 

Note to mmarotta: this is from a "reputable dealer"

Now that's my kind of coin! Very nice!

What's the deal with that toning?  Is that common and original or did you have to pay extra?

The toning is completely original and looks great in hand. Its somewhat common to find toned coins in this series, sometimes nice and sometimes ugly. And no, I did not pay any extra for the toning - that was a bonus.

Got this yesterday.

1829 Half Dime

Got a great package from Tiff! Thank you!!!

My son was intrigued by the big edible gold coin.... I hope he doesn't try to eat my gold coins!

Got a future PCI entry....

Got a 1936 Wheat cent in change last week.

Nice coins as always Tiff.

Where's the 1793?

No coins.  No coins for quite awhile. 

Same here. More coins going out than coming in.

PF-66. Obverse Cameo.

Liberty.

DBHE

Classic Head.

SLQ.

Squatting Liberty.

Draped Bust Heraldic Eagle by far.

Walking Liberty.

Got this on Saturday...

1857 FEC

Tease...... Got a PCI5 entry today, world gold category. No pic yet.

I GOT A T-1 1917 SLQ!!!     

 

 

Wow, that SLQ has just the right "look" doesn't it? Congrats!

Nice half you have there gpnyc. I wouldn't mind having one like that.

Well it took me 25 years of collecting coins to finally get one so don't give up hope!

As for a Gobrect dollar...check out the current ANR auction

Thanks for the link! I see that the coin is in a PCGS holder yet it looks cleaned to me. What's your opinion?
