This coin was the last needed to complete the $2.50-D collection. My first winning set on Ngc Registry ,last year. To my surprise also Mine is the only set which makes it a little easier to be a winner

 

Just bought this coin, I have no idea what this is. I would really appreciate anyone who can tell me what this is.. Thanks in advance

 

1833 Half Dime, V-2, LM-8, MS65
Stunning Color and Quality1833 H10C MS65 NGC. CAC. V-2, LM-8, R.3. The 83 nearly touch at top and the second E is low on the reverse, attributing this scarce variety. The Gem condition of the present piece makes it a conditional rarity, as most Mint State examples are of the more-common V-1, LM-10 die pairing. Pale blue, deep blue, lavender, and splashes of copper-gold amid glowing luster make this a stunning early half dime, a great-looking piece for type collectors.

 

A few years worth of Christmas presents to me.
Was a great finish for 2013 for this collector.
Thank you for checking it out!

Thanks, It's in the same price range as some 1907 Saints but I think there are a less of them around making the proof better value, maybe.

 

hey Bill I lost my internet connection in the Gulf of Mexico on Weds or Thurs and made it home today. IT looks like you had a great Christmas according to your post and pictures! I can't wait to get my hands dirty fooling around with coins, before and after Saints game at 3:30 Today. Send or post something today if your signed on...

 

They don't get much better than that!!! Nice

 

Nice

sweet!! Looks like they are being a little conservative on the grading!!

 

Thanks, Hugh!
The 1783 Constellatio Nova is currently my favorite coin, and I acquired it in a kind of crazy way.
I know the pictures in the slabs don't do it much justice, so here are some closeups of the coins.

 

Recognized this coin during a sale recently...I enjoy showing off to my curious none collector friends in New Orleans.

 

Much better pics. I m selling a few 1/2c at Fun and let Heritage talk me into selling 4 or 5 similar. I don't like letting them go. the dates aren't as good as yours. the color is Sweet

 

I need to send in my 1835 I kept I'm guessing ms-63 bn

 

Been working all day quit in time to watch the second half of the pats game had the first on the radio they won but proved yet again they have no defense my pick Denver all the way even though I'm a lifelong New England fan been going through my ha catalogs wishing this sale was in August or September when I had plenty of extra money actually I could spend a few million there easily if I had it and I don't care at all about the 1913 liberty nickel the 1870-s dollar the brasher doubloon and the large cents and early gold proof seated coins ms/64 1889 cc Morgan proof Morgan's I could go on and on anyway no more coins for me til probably mid late February after I get back from Nashville

 

I

I can attest that half cent is better than any pics kinda surprised it didn't go 45 my favorite new coin is that 1808 half I can't get a pic that does the color justice is spectacular in hand my fav is still my 1795 $1 and my 94 s-61 liberty cap is right up there the flowing hair 95 not the draped bust I got both and like both but the flowing hair better

 

I just received this Draped Bust Dollar from Heritage. a common date 1799 Dollar but a medium scarcity BB-162 variety. its also a Die state IV which makes it a little more scarce,although not visible in photos. looks much better in hand with blue and green colors.

 

Nice draped bust!! In my opinion there's no real common or bad date for these beauties 1799 is one I lack
