Deal of the Summer!

As you can tell, I'm a bit late on posting this one. Its an 1805 draped bust dime, Fair 2 condition. The scan is a bit crap, so you'll have to take my word for it. I felt like I went back in time when I bought it - it only cost me $65!!!

The coin definitely looks better in person than in the scan.

Nice, has a bunch of history on it, but nice none the less! Good deal too! I think I see Pocket Change around the corner.
Nice coin man.
