The more I look at it, the more it intrigues me. I know zilcho about this period of coinage, but to have something actually handled by real life Jeffersonian ancestors and not just pulled out of some air tight safe I think is what affects me. Any opinions, should i stand clear.. I see that PCGS gives a Good 1802 any type about $60, which doesn't really matter, I just sense a lot of history coming off this slug LINK Opinions? There you go....I fixed it...go to the top of your post where there is a world and a "link" of metal...click on that and type LINK in the first box and then the ULR in the next....

It is an S-232, an R-1 coin. If it were mine I'd put it in with my pocket change for a couple years. I think it would look a lot better then. __________________ Slab collector and researcher reported as of 12/29/06 132 companies 332 production varieties   Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Would you like to support CoinTalk?
