    Took my father to the coin store today to get him a birthday present - found a couple of CBH's that I like. I think I attributed them correctly but I could be wrong. I only looked at their book for a few minutes, mine still has not arrived. I was only looking for overdates since I did not have any - at least I believe these two are. Doing thumbnails so you can make the larger if you want. Remember all opinions are welcome.

    Top one is O101a in VF+

    Bottom one I see as O-103 in a very nice Fine.

    Great pickups, both coins are worthy of any collection.

    Great looking coins. Classic examples of the series. 1814, O-101A (R2) and 1824, O-103, (R1).

    Take Care

    Thanks everyone. The worst part about this is I went down to find something nice for my father and he could not find anything he was interested in - except one of those St. Gaudens which was a little more than I usually spend. As it was he would not let me get it for him. I kept trying to convince him that I would inherit it anyway - he wouldn't go for it. The morgans had been picked over, so he was really did not see anything he wanted. He also like the Early Dollars - they had about 7 of them from 1795 to 1799. Man did a couple of them look nice - all were between 2 to 4k. Sigh!

    Forgot to add - I did attribute them correctly it seems. All in about 5 minutes with their book of early halves. Can't wait for mine to get here.
