If I had picked both, my wife would not be happy. I went with what I believe is the harder to find of the two
Thanks, it was a choice of this 1838 or a 1837 of similar grade. I’m happy with my decision
Well that’s a nice surprise.
My favorite lcs has been very picked over lately. I was able to find this small star variety and I’m pleased that it has some good detail left. Do...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] Found this at my lcs today. Quite happy with this one. My only other flying eagle has a lot less detail than this one.
Yes, this is the 1807/6 large 7 variety. According to pcgs, I paid ag3 price for this coin. I may get a g6 out of this. No matter what, I’m happy...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] I have been eyeballing this coin at my lcs for awhile now. Today I got an offer that I couldn’t refuse and this beauty came home...
It’s my lcs. I know the coin guy well. They buy at good prices. They didn’t tell the seller about the proof. I’ve never seen a seated proof...

Well I gave my coworker an offer for the coin. He was going to a pawn shop to sell. Hopefully my offer was more. I’ll find out tomorrow
That is exactly why I was thinking fake. I’m glad I was wrong. When in doubt, ask coin talk
Thanks everyone. My first thought was why would you fake a plain 76 quarter? It’s nice even with the holes.
[ATTACH]A coworker of mine brought in a bag of coins for me to look at. This strikes me as fake. It’s holed but it looks too nice. Thoughts?[ATTACH]
[ATTACH] Here is the two that I have pics of. I also have a 1846[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Thank you! I consider you an expert in the seated coinage. That little bugger was hard to take a pic of. The one thing that did stick in my mind...
The one that got away was a 1838 small stars dime for $75. Oh well
These two were $6 each. How could I say no? [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
In my eyes, that half is a stunner
So I was able to stop by my favorite coin shop today and found these beauty’s. He had purchased a very large seated collection from an estate. The...
That’s why I picked them up. I still don’t understand how a dime with only twice the mintage of the 16d can be so inexpensive. Paid $30 for mine
