I normally would not touch a holed coin, but I did not have a silver 3 cent piece, and I bought this at my coin club for only $4. I was pleased with the purchase. I also bought this 2 cent piece also for $4 at the coin club. I didn't have one of these either. So, for $8, I will fill two holes in a yet to be bought type set (I will start working on that some time in the future). Sorry the pics aren't great, but here ya go. The 2 cent piece is a 1865
Well $8 in this case went a long way. Just another step closer to finishing that type set. Then maybe some upgrades can be in order?! Stick with it Bob, can't wait to see it when it is all said and done.
That 3 cent piece was probably a button for somebody back in the day. I also just bought my first silver 3 cent piece a couple days ago for the type set. You don't see many of them around on the forum. There were worse ways to spend $8! Good pickups.
Yep, at some point I'll upgrade, but I couldn't pass these up for the price. Great to see you Travis, it's been a while!
Nice pick ups! I got you beat on the 3 cent, picked up someone's "pocket piece" for $2 ;-). I love the silver 3 cents.
