T1 standing Liberty's are one of the most beautiful designs in my opinion.

 

Agreed one of the few 20th c coins I really like

 

More old gold back from pcgs I still can't figure out where they got the cleaning details on the 54-c

 

Before & After Grading

 

Latest addition to my collection is Tetricus I & Tetricus II. I loved the portrait of Tetricus I and felt Tetricus II was a bit better then average for him as a whole coin wise.

Both these emperors are considered junk in the roman coin world due to poor flans and strikes.

You got an MS 64 Stone Mountain half for $16? Call the police, this guy is a thief.

 

Absolute knockouts everyone!!! I love the gold, MaineBill! Wingedliberty, Robec has added a new dimension to the AGE's, very beautiful. McBlzr, talk about an amazing purchase/submission! That is one rare 1863-S Dime too! Very impressive stuff y'all!
I bought this ole' gal a few days back and am really enjoying the upgrade. The last 1876-CC I had was in VG-F and had some rim damage...yikes.

 

Lovely seated dime!

 

Lincoln commemorative 12 coins that need a New Home.
MS66 Red+PR 69DeepCameo Red..

 

Picked this up off Heritage this morning. I logged onto Heritage and saw that there was an auction going on. Figured there was no harm in watching the auction as long as I don't bid on anything. I saw a MS66 1899-O CAC Morgan sell for $1,800, and right after another was up for auction. No one was bidding on the coin, so I put in a quick bid of $350, not expecting to win, but I won it! I have no idea why this one sold for $350 and the same coin, which in my opinion, was in worse condition than this one, sold for over $1,800.
Not sure how I'm going to afford this. Especially with Heritage charging $50+ for shipping to Canada. I'm going to have to sell off some of my collection to pay for this, but I am still happy with my purchase as every PCGS MS66 1899-O CAC Morgan sold within the past couple months has gone for $500 or more, aside from this one.

 

Goodness, it looks like that one should have had a (+) or a Gold bean! Congrats

 

I noticed it looked nice for the grade after I had won it. I am really happy with the coin

 

That's one of the cleanest Morgan's I ever seen for that money nice buy!!

 

Thank you I got lucky as I hadn't even seen the coin before I made the bid. It could have been an MS64 coin in a 66 holder for all I knew With shipping it'll cost at least $400 though.

 

Here is the reverse. It's really clean but that spot under the wing bugs me lol

 

Wouldn't bother me a bit now if it was only red blue and gold no secret I like toned Morgans!!

 

Now Jello you should know better than advertising outside the proper forums[
