    I wasn't even looking for one, nor do I collect them but it was a good price and I couldn’t turn it down

    And a few more, starting with a beautiful, crusty original mint state 1909-D Half Eagle . . . I didn't capture the color of the grungy slime on the coin very well. This may go out for conservation and grading.

    A very nice 1841 Seated Half conservatively graded VF25 by PCGS, thanks to John Call . . .
    0.50-1841-1.jpg 0.50-1841-2.jpg 0.50-1841-3.jpg


    And a better date 1895-O $10 Lib graded MS61 by NGC . . .

    I love the color and the way that Indian looks, as pictured. Of course, probably looks a little different in hand, so you will make your decision based on that and your own preferences.

    I’ve been looking for one with the right eye appeal, and as shown, I would have picked that one up, depending on the price (I have a hard time parting with more than $20 on anything).

    I just spent $15.61 on this mess, though, lol.

    Then getting out of my car in the parking lot there was a beat up 1935 D quarter

    And here I am, looking for one. ;) (But not that actively; my coin budget is exhausted for a bit.)

    It actually has quite a bit more character in hand, with a generous amount of the grey / olive green over flashy deep orange surfaces found on classic Euro-gold.

    I just noticed that my posted newps were half dollar-gold-half dollar-gold-half dollar-gold, and not on purpose . . . wierd how some things just happen the way they do.

    That San Fran AtB looks like a business strike to me.

    Nothing crazy but I bought a couple roll of 2019 D and P to fill my book, but more importantly my first pickup in 10 years, so I guess I have been bitten by the bug again.

    Are the 1942 war nickels rare? I find the 43-45 all the time, but none of the 1942 nickels I find are war nickels.
