    One more guys,

    Here is a really nice 1807 which I think attributes at O-101 and MAY be in the F-15ish condition zone. It's a common one, but still one I didn't have.

    Thanks for looking
    Ben

    Ben:
    That is one very pretty piece.
    However, (There is always a however, isn't there) are you sure that it isn't O-105?
    Obverse: 1 joined to curl;
    Recerce: Beak & Star joined, and the stems to the berries seem to match better.

    Ben:
    Now for the bad news: O-107 is a R-1.
    the other O-101was an R-5!
    Sorry, but I was kinda wishing that I was wrong.

    Oh Hell, it really doesn't matter. O-105 is good enough for me. I paid only $135 for it :) BTW, nothing back from Don Parsley yet.

    Take Care

    Bone, you got this one at a steal for 135. I would have happily paid 100 dollars more than you did for that. I would say it is a lock 15, shot 20. Nice coin!

    Big Z, Thanks for the looksee. When it showed up (ebay store) for sale I did a double-take too. Had to get the OK from the Miss's first which took a little bribery :D

    :D :D :D

    Wow, it sure looks a lot better in your pics than the auction's. Nice pickup, that's a lot of coin for less than $200....Mike

    Mike is right!
    Your photo is a lock to buy, his almost looked fake, like lead.
    Great deal!
