I really just picked out what I thought had good looks or good dates/mint marks. This stuff is amazing to me. Did anyone miss the 1882-CC $10 Liberty I posted over in "what's it worth"? (rookie mistake) More like what's the odds I'd end up with a 140 coin which had a mintage of 6,764 of which, PCGS estimates 275 survive. That's crazy in any condition.
I'm not much of a gold guy. More of the variety guy. I wouldn't squawk at any gold passed down. I am having fun looking at it. Pretty cool collection!
Definitely not. My older brother and I had to go through things quickly. It was all at my place. He wanted the double eagle which I didn’t have a problem with. The eagle, half-eagle, 2 quarter eagles, and the 10 mark gold are what I got in that exchange.
