Now THERE'S a blast from the past. I used to live in Littleton, MA and would go to Boy Scout camp near Jaffrey, NH. That always included a hike up...
To both of you, thanks for the info.
I've got a set of Reduced Size Capped Bust Quarters (1831-1838) by Browning Number missing just the two rarest varieties. All are in either PCGS...
That's what I thought it could be. I heard somewhere that they were coming out as a TPG. For the moment I don't care for that idea.
I created a database using Excel spreadsheet and put all the info in it. My currency collection is limited to small size US $1 bills starting with...

I just won a coin on a Heritage auction. Their delivery schedule: 7-14 days. Oh, well. Nothing I can do about that.
@KBBPLL thanks for the links. The FS variety label is one that I've seen but never looked into. They're new to me but I'm seeing them showing up...
Just made the mistake of opening Snow's guide to IHCs. Thought that would help. Turned out to be a can of worms. Things just got more complicated....
The Red Book lists IHCs with both Shallow and Bold N's on 1870 through 1872 issues. I checked both the PCGS and NGC sites and neither seem to...
The 1811 is my favorite. I'm fond of die cracks, particularly extensive ones.
WOW! VERY good price.
Yep, the British Trade Dollar would be my choice.
Half cents are my current interest area. But I don't have an 1800 yet. Nice coin.
The Greysheet works well for pricing Rarity 1 and 2 (and maybe R-3) Large Cents. But above that I don't know of a pricing source. A computer...
