But I did buy the 2013 (W) & 2012 (S) proof/reverse/enhanced proof silver eagle sets for $230 for both sets in the box package & with c.o.a..

At my local coin shop & I think that's a good deal !

New pickup 1836 B-1 (e) penultimate die state
In this late die state, the main crack goes from the rim at S7 straight through to the date, completely bisecting the coin, with several other minor cracks joining it. I love the look from the completely shattered obverse die and the resulting extremely weak strike of the eagles head, neck, and surrounding area.

 

WOW that is nice looking coin ! What it set you back if you don't mind ?

 

Paid a little over $15 a piece for these, which I thought was a good deal. Two of the nickels are nicely toned; a 1962 and a 1963.
I'll get pics of them individually soon.

 

You did good !!! I would pay that all day. Where did you get them from ?

At a small antique store in Queensbury NY.

 

Here are the two nickels that had a little color

 

Nice proofs.

 

Nice ! I just bought a Jefferson nickles collection (394 total coins ) for $45 .

But nothing that looks like that !

 

I traded for this 1837 Bust half last week. At monthly meeting at Rocket city coin club.

 

It looks like Lady Liberty is blowing smoke I kind of like it.

 

I didn't even think about that til you pointed it out. In hand isn't different must be this cell phone camera shadowed or lighting.
But your right.

 

Well I just made the purchase of my newest acquisition. I wanted a Dansco for Roosevelt dimes to put together a Gem BU and proof only set so I purchased one eBay $33, now I know that's a little high for an album but it came with 117 different BU and Proof issues. The way I figure it I got my album for $21.30 about the going price I reckon and all the dimes at face, I think that's a good deal. Oh no Silver but still a good deal.

 

That's killer love them cracks!

 

She just sparked up a doober

 

New for the Type set! I love cheap coins! lol

 

You had better hide from the police because you stole them. The half dollars alone are worth as much as you paid for the whole sets. Good buy.

 

I thought part of the fun of filling an album is being able to pick/choose each coin to your satisfaction. I understand the album came with 117 coins in it, so are you planning on looking for varieties?

Part of me understands why you bought the album and part of me doesn't. Either way, enjoy your latest purchase.
