1838-P not a bad date ! Once in hand w/glove it could be a hidden gem Vf/Ef seated dime.check out the diehttp://www.seateddimevarieties.com/major_100_table2.htm
Is the large stars variety. Funny you send me to the website of the dealer I bought it from!! He's still got it posted as of now I've bought a few coins from him Gerry is a wicked nice guy and lives 20 minutes away from me! We like our coins up here in Maine
Here's a challenge for everyone. Post a coin from the saddle ridge hoard. Anyone lucky enough to get any of them? Some of them are actually for sale on Amazon. Their new coin section has some neat stuff.
I don't as they were all way overpriced for common gold I'd like to pick one up in the secondary market for real market valve tho
Personally I wouldn't. Most were just common as you mentioned. I don't feel finding them in a tin can makes them any more special. As always buy the coin not the holder, story, ect.
How do you get a cac sticker for a pr 1? I thought Sheldon went 1-70 so Shouldn't this be a giveaway grade?
I think it's at the high end for the grade but accurate it's clean and problem free with nice fields and no porosity just worn flat!! A coin I'll upgrade in my type set at some point but will likely be easy to sell to someone doing a lowball set
Me I think the provenance makes them more interesting then the average common gold coin but I'd never pay a premium. If I could buy an attractive example for the same money as any other common date double eagle I would tho
More coin porn a little higher grade then the last one now this is my lowest and higest grade coin as well as my oldest and newest us mint coins (not counting junk silver)
How much porn do you have over there? I wonder how long you can keep this thread going by posting 1 a day.
