    Going to hit this with some Verdi-care but it’s still pretty cool. According to the Schenkman book of Sutler tokens it’s an R7 which he has as between 11-20 known. The reverse is hard to read because of the poor strike. It reads : John Stanton / Die Sinker / Cincinnati

    Great coin. I have looked for some of those, but can't find them in my budget.

    Wanted a nice Clad Roosevelt Dime for my Type set.

    Won this GC for little money despite the grade, as its not Full Bands. I thought the obverse looked great in particular.

    That was the first and only set I ever collected to completion. I also did Proof 69 DCAM specifically. I don't remember how long it took me, maybe a few years. It was a fun time, as I had very little money, and sniped coins as I could here and there until I had them all.

    Nicely done.

    Best choice VF Bust half dollar I've seen in a while.
    I am not a CAC fanboy, but this coin truly deserves a sticker.
    It's not only a nice Bustie, but a rather scarce R4 variety, too :-D

    Not my favorite series, but that is one beautiful capped bust half. Nice pickup!

    Don't know much about grading halves, but seems like it kinda deserves an EF-40, since it seems to still have some luster.

    I dig the 09'S VDB Santini.
    And yeah, there is plenty of luster left on that VF35.
    Here is a no line Fatty, that I picked up at the Denver Coin Expo. No grade cause I might do a GTG.

    It has much deeper surfaces than the photo shows.

    That’s a cool token. Is it some sort of brass alloy?

    I’m glad you posted this and I happened to read it today. I unfortunately usually miss the Manchester show and am always disappointed that I do since it’s the biggest closest show to me.
    I grew up one town over from the show and actually lived in Manchester for a few years. Still live relatively close so I always try to get to that show if I can.
    Thanks again for posting!
    What table will you be at? I’ll try to stop by and introduce myself if I can.

    Hi, sorry I didn't see this. I was there from 10am to 3. Great show! For a couple new pickups I have to take pictures of.

    I may do the April show if you plan on going. Maybe Vertigo will go too. Get a group together. Would be fun to put faces to names.
