The Collaborative "Virtual 7070" Type Set Project

Those poor little half dimes often did. Trimes, too. It was a big, tough world out there for a relatively thin little coin.

 

Good morning, and welcome to February 3rd.

Today our type will be the Liberty Seated Half Dime Arrows (1853-55).

Again, I lack a problem-free example of this type in my current collection, so I'm falling back on my "holey" type set.

Here goes. Hide your eyes if you're frightened of problem coins!

Not only does my holey collection have scary stuff, it also has crappy photographs. You can tell the stuff I shot with my phone. Maybe one day I will get decent photos of all the holeys, because... umm...

... just because. We know everybody wants to look at 'em, right? LOL





OK, enough of that.

Here at least is an acceptable example of the type that I used to own. Nothing earthshaking, but decent enough.
