Just a few coin exchanges here. Have never sold any of my romans. Let us just say, one day my heirs are going to be very busy if they are not...
Here an 1823, JR-3. On this variety star 7 point to the upper edge of the headband, and the 'E' in STATES is large. [ATTACH][ATTACH]
Here is an 1814, JR-5. This variety is easy to identify as the words in the legend on the reverse are spaced very closely together so that it...
That is a very pretty 1823 JR-1!. There are only 3 die varieties for the year 1823, and JR-1 is characterized by star 7 pointing to the curl on...
I am frankly captivated by the OP's sestertius. A dream coin..... This is the other example which is illustrated in the internet (from...
Interesting. Thanks for that insight.
Quote from the 'Bust Dime Identification Guide', P39: '' 1811 dimes were produced with an unused 1809 die. The digits 11 were punched over the 09...
Very nice 1835, JR-9! Notice how the '3' is low, and the 2nd 'T' in STATES also. Those are the characteristics.
Thank you for posting the picture of the coin which was found in the UK. I looked for it was there was no reference to be found. It seems that...
@bqcoins, very cool pair of coffee-limk - I just hope that 1821 is not a R-6 variety! @ldhair, that is a very nice 1827, JR-4. I admire the...
Yes, that is a nice one, with a fine portrait of Septimius Severus.
That is a beautiful and of course very historical coin. I saw it at the British Museum in 2008 If I recall and was very impressed. I wonder how...
1811/09 is an interesting year. The same set of dies were used as for the 1809, with the digits '11' punched over the '09'. The reverse die...
Your are correct, @Omegaraptor, 1809 CBD's are quite popular and can be hard to find. I recall about 5 years ago there was some kind of craze...
Thanks, all for your comments. @ldhair, nice examples! @Black Friar, that is quite a find! 1821 JR-2 is one of the top ten rarities in the...
Great! I am not doing too bad. Just one wrong (Geta instead of Elagabalus). 780 pts.
@old49er, there are nine die pairings for 1835. Your example is an 1835 JR-1.
Thanks Guys, for your positive comments, and for posting your examples. @deacon2828, that is a very interesting cud. The Capped Bust Dime Variety...
I do, and I love these little coins. Besides early large cents and colonials, the CBD's are perhaps my favorite U.S series. Within the Capped...
