    i was bidding on one of these a few weeks back, as hoping to get it at around 200 or so, as the auction seemed slow moving, i lost bid and it finally went for 365.00 always wanted an early proof...(sigh) maybe another time

    nice, i love anything from the 1700"s, seeing 200+ yr old anything, especially coins makes me happy...just knowing all the hands this coin went through, and the stories it could tell....

    hmm, except for the 'errors' i do not see any defects..sometimes i think they grade way too conservatively..i have seen some coins listed as 65-67 that have major nicks and other defects, whilst something like this one slide under with a 66?/ i wonder what anyone else thinks??

    I suppose, like many things, it depends on how hungover someone is when they go to work :)

    Haven't posted any new acquisitions in a while due to my camera taking a dump. Just got a new one today and started catching up on cataloging my new additions. These are the second and third pics I have taken with it so far. 1885OMogan1.jpg

    A nice 1885O Morgan I picked up a few weeks ago.

    And a 2014 Baseball HOF Clad Half Dollar in OGP 2014BBHOF.jpg

    That is a worthy RPD. When you can see the variety without magnification then you have something. Good pick.

    Cool. I wonder: What is the sound of two dies clashing?

    Nothing compared to the clashing of me and the better half if I was to start a new series
