Hope all is well with you and yours, RLM. :)
That's a nice coin for that price. Bust quarters are a tough series and finding them presentable is not easy. Most all of them have been cleaned...
Here's another '47, an N-7: [img][img] And an unattributed '48 that NGC graded 53: [img][img] Have fun....Mike

Welcome to the thread, Matthew. :)
Hey, wait a minute! That's an odd-looking 1817, Larry. ;)

I have Teletrade send me an e-mail every time they list a large cent. I've not found a large cent to bid on at Teletrade in three years....
I think it is safe to say that most people who crack out coins do not send back in the label. Note to self: Never believe TPG population reports...
I used to keep my raw large cent collection in a Dansco. I was not happy with the protection afforded the coins in the album (many of the coins...
I gave the coin the benefit of the doubt and guessed 40. nice coin. a bit dark, but I like them that way. :)
