They are very beautiful coins. I'm a fan of the 1700s reales myself.

Yours are simply amazing.

 

Thanks for saying. This one is graded XF-45 and has very attractive color. Thanks again....DEX

 

Here's a few new type coins to add to the 7070.
1831 Capped Bust Quarter B-3 R5


1875-S Seated 20 cent Common RPM

 

And a nice low mintage half cent to round it up!
1832 Classic Head 1/2 cent 51k mintage

 

As long as we're on the topic of Half Cents...
Here is another one that just came in the mail today...but it was a pain in the you-know-what to photograph for some reason!
1804 Draped Bust Half Cent.

 

All your coins look good!!!
With this one the 1892+1893 were in the hands @ Expo, kids had to hold there new toy so no telling what been on both years coins. I think that 1 reason so many were or are Cleaned but not this one:thumb:

 

Latest new purchases!!

Placing them here for now! Might post them in the IKE or the toned threads as well!! Can't wait to see that 71s with those colors~ Thanks gbroke, look forward to seeing these!

 

Maybe I should have this in the Toned Coin thread... I found this among some Jeffersons I got recently and noticed the colors

 

1818, O.105 R3

Most specimens of this die marriage have a weakly-struck obverse. This was the result of deep hubbing (devices were punched into the die too deep). Since the dies were hubbed so deep, the planchet metal could not sufficiently flow into the die's recesses when the coin was struck.

Later die-states also show evidence of strong die clashing on the obverse, some of the strongest in the series. My coin was struck relatively early in the die's life, but clashing is still visible at the cap and in the right-obverse field.

 

New camera should be post for me:devil: but here last weeks eBay Bucks buy.

 

Gemmy 1818 Bust Half with Overton # I will let the Experts note.Homer for Sure!!!!:thumb:

 

Trust me when I say the 1929 Buffalo Nickel's were not struck out very well. So, when I'm at coin shows or just on the hunt for Buffs I'm always looking for dates that are a little tougher than the rest and the 29 fits that bill. I ran across this one on the bay from a respectable seller so I pulled the trigger. I received this one yesterday and I've gotta say I can't remember a 29 that is so clean and just about blemish free. This one is housed in a pcgs holder graded 64+ but I think it's closer to a 65+. At any rate I feel the need to show this one. I think it's an amazing Buff for the grade and well struck too. Thanks for looking and all the best to ya....DEX

 

You get some of the Nicest Buffalo Nickel's I have seen, Real Nice.

 

Dex Hat's off brother you do score some nice buffalos. And echo to your post the 29 in that shape are few and far between. Great find Paddy

 

Nice old gal its a shame the scratch as its only wear is on the obv. & Rev. High points

 

1958-D Franklin Half (PCGS MS64). Just bought this off ebay. These are the sellers photos. Thought it was cool looking.

 

My latest two purchases. Both were slabbed and freed from their plastic prisons.

 

Just to get a better understanding: why do people unslab coins?
