Let's see your newest acquisitions!

I bought it about a year ago when silver was down low and I couldn't pass it up. LoL the funny thing was I was looking through a bin that was all $29 and I stumbled across her. I made the purchase as soon as I could and after I got the receipt the guy asked me why I was quick in the purchase. I explained to him the deal with it and he told me he didn't have the time to go thru all the Morgans and Peaces to look for the Vams lol. After that everytime I went to the store he would hand me a bin full of new silver dollars that he had purchased so I could find the Vams and buy them a $29 each. I scored a few more but got rid of them threw the year.

Gosh - lucky you! I just got into Peace and I haven't even got into VAMs yet.

But all the same, what a great buy.

I just received a 1909-O barber half from my grandfather and an 1857 flying eagle cent from my uncle for an early Christmas present. They are my first of each! :hail:

 

Posted these a couple days ago, just re-imaged them to show more of the colors.

 

Sellers photos My photo w/ camera W/ Dino Lite had to try again with the camera

 

Adjust your settings and set the camara to incandesent (not sure if correct spelling) for better images.

 

Now that's a nice one!

 

Is this better PS I have NO idea how to change the settings, I'll have to go to book I do think this is a better shot Thanks

 

Attribution is a F-T2 101 ME of dime should be doubled and the lower right oak leaf should be doubled also

 

That is alot better. Normaly the setting for lights is under the White Balance.

Got a whole bunch of foreign coins from my great-aunt, and they most likely belonged to my passed great-uncle:
1978 10 cents Canada
1974 3 centavos El Salvador
1965 1/2 franc France
1960 1 franc France
1948 half crown Great Britain
1991 20 pence ?
1969 eire 10p ?
1967 1 penny ?

If anyone could tell me what ? countries are and if any are silver or rare it would be greatly appreciated as I know little to nothing about foreign coins. Thanks and happy holidays to all!

 

Got these two for Christmas today.

I can't properly image this coin, especially through the slab, but the reverse is a symphony of deep copper, gold, and orange...



And the obverse has bands of pink and green all around the edges...



I think this coin has had enough toning for a lifetime, so it's staying in the slab.
