Post your SEATED coins.

Continued results of my last submission.

1841 XF45


1853 A&R VF35 - one of my favorite SLHs. It helped "set the hook."


1871 G4


1878 Details - cleaned - This coin was polished. Disappointing, but I bought it for a "details" price.


This nice surprise helped turn my 78-CC frown upside down. I figured it as a "Details" coin for some fine, toned scratches near the date and some hairlines. Maybe they liked the crust on the reverse. I'll sell it and get a better 78-CC.
1895-S XF45

Here are the final grades and Trueviews for the 1882 and 1888.

1882 PCGS VF20


1888 PCGS PR61

 

Raw coin. I got what I paid for.

 

Went to my local coin club show this weekend, more on that later. Picked these two up while there

 

These are relatively inexpensive coins I submitted at 2024 FUN as an "Economy" submission to PCGS. Some are inexpensive; many were favorites of mine for being choice midgrade coins.

I just found out that the 1877-CC is an underpriced coin in CU Coin Prices by at least 10% in the low and midgrades.

This coin has a great look and surfaces except for the sulfur burn. I'm glad it straight-graded as its flaws are obvious to any prospective buyer and it's otherwise a choice coin.



PCGS EF40 - Glad I grabbed this one.


1842-O LD LL VF20 - nice coin with interesting reverse toning.


1858-O VF35 - one of the dark "Founder coins" of my collection that showed me that nicely -toned, original coins could be obtained raw off of eBay.


This is another one of those founder coins - awesome coin with a planchet streak. It graded PCGS VF35. Excellent!

 

Here are few more FUN submissions.

1846-O Medium date PCGS VF20 - choice looking midgrade coin

1855-O PCGS VF35 - a golden toned coin, EF45 coin with hits to Liberty's throat and to the eagle's shield. Net graded - whew!



PCGS VF30 - Another great looking, inexpensive midgrade SLH.


1873 NA Closed 3 - PCGS EF40 - nice toning but overexposed here.

 

From my type set. MS-63

 

I apologize for double posting the above coin. Perhaps a moderator can remove it. Below, is what I meant to post. Pattern Trade Dollar, J-1263, PR-61

 

Here is an unusual type coin, the 1839 half dollar. This is a partial year type coin. I have found it to be scarce, but the old time collectors say that there was a hoard. If there was a hoard, it's long gone now.



Here is a "With Drapery" piece from 1846. You will not that there is not much difference in the treatment of Ms. Liberty's elbow cloth. I bought this one from a bid wall a long time ago. I've never had it graded because of mark that runs down Ms. Liberty's right arm. It's still an attractive coin.

 

Big big fan of the seated design. I think the most striking is a seated Lady Liberty with an uncluttered background. Since a Gobrecht dollar is out of the question until I strike the lottery, I settled on this fun type one dime loaded with die cracks and clash.

 

I have a few:

 

I didn't mind seeing it again. It's a nice coin!

 

I agree. It's very choice, the reason I had it graded even though it's only VF20.

Here are two more coins I grabbed off eBay recently:
1853 Arrows & Rays - The obverse is OK, but I couldn't let that reverse get away.




1840 WB-1 - early die state without die breaks, ANACS F12
