    So, I went to visit my brother over this weekend and his family. I remembered that he had a coin collection that meant very little to him. I offered to buy them all from him as a lot. Instead, he just gave them to me, and said to keep the ones I want and share the profit with him of ones I sold. Sweet deal! Anyways, there was nothing too valuable, but a lot of stuff in the $15-$40 ish range. A whole set of roosevelt dimes, some midgrade barber stuff, indians, lincolns, a couple of two centers, some mint sets, etc.

    He also had a bunch of older foreign coins that I know nothing about. I will probably post some of them eventually.

    However, I was pleasantly surprised by this little treasure in one of his mint sets.
    Is it what I think it is? It has the curved 9, weak liberty, etc.

    According to page 142 of the new Cherrypicker's Guide, it's a $20 coin to those who collect varieties, $0.10 to everyone else.
