    Here's a seated quarter my son just added to his US type book.

    Assuming you're referring to my 1911 Weak D Quarter Eagle, and not to the 1871 Seated Quarter, nor do I.

    Got the 1911 V Nickel as change at a grocery store.

    Any thoughts on it's worth?

    I loved the cameo contrast on this one. I couldn't pass it up. 779379-1.jpg 779379-2.jpg

    This 71-S proof Ike (still in OGP) came in the mail on Christmas Eve, and it's deep sunset gold color is gorgeous.

    This 1899-O Morgan looks a bit different after an acetone bath. I did use a Q-tip very gently to encourage certain areas to give up the gunk. Still not sure why I bought it, other than I felt the need to save it.

    Here's a before pic of the reverse (seller photo). It was a very grimy, sticky residue of some sort.

    So I'm loading my register today with bank rolled coins and I came across this penny. It had cool coloring so l grabbed it.

    Then I flip it over and it is blank! Could 2 blanks been in together? Is there another one of these around without the back?

    This week I picked up a 1909 VDB, 1914 D and a 1917 S. I am currently in negotiations for a 1931 S that is slabbed by PCGS. Also looking for a 1909 S VDB. We shall see. 20191228_145910.jpg 20191228_145918.jpg FB_IMG_1577567727310.jpg FB_IMG_1577567730393.jpg 20191228_150005.jpg 20191228_150026.jpg

    That's what I am looking for. Also looking at a slabbed 1914 D just to have a slabbed one. The 1931 S I'm looking at is slabbed.

    At least with the 1909-S VDB there's a lot of good information out there to check authenticity. I bought a nice slider a number of years back after doing my homework.

    Since the OP describes himself as a new collector, I suggested the safest route for him. But there is a lot of info out there.
