Thanks so much -- I realized just how old I was when a Medicare card came in the mail and it didn't have my parents name on it !!!

1913-D Type 2 -- Ch AU

The 'G's' look fine -- nice coin...

Are we putting this thread to bed after 8 years??

Very nice & in a slideshow format!

GEM BU65 - Full Head

Nope......

1860 -- type of 1859, pointed bust + broken 'R' in AMERICA -- called 'type-1'

Why do you think it's not genuine? I have a complete collection of Canadian large cents and it sure looks OK to me...nice high-grade, anywhere from AU-UNC...

It's a lustrous blue tone and quite unusually even -- that's the plus side.........the downside, I HATE TONED COINS!!!

SHOULD I DIP IT?

SHOULD I DIP IT?

SHOULD I DIP IT?

SHOULD I DIP THIS COIN???

Super Gem

Beware the 'green-eyed monster'......lol...Art, thanks, but I think I mentioned long ago that cents are my favorite venue in coins.......

Reverse -- I've rarely encountered such a well-struck, virtually flawless IHC -- the diamonds are absolutely full, the ribbon is amazing and the field has no imperfections -- this reverse is similarly flawless

Super-gem early die state

You're right Jeff, it may be (and is) really only worth a quarter, but I'll bet there's a story that goes with that punch!

Thanks Art!

1868 awesome coin..
