I picked this 1926 up from eBay for $17.95. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I paid $104.50 for a 1925-S that was pretty well made, but dirty and dull. [ATTACH] I experimented with the distilled water / acetone /xylene...
I’m not perfectly happy with either of these 1925-D’s. But I am very, very close to it. Each has a flaw but the overall appearance and toning...
A nice 1925 can be found pretty easily. This was $30 on eBay. A full red coin is more valuable, but I actually like the look of a nice red-brown....
I guess they ran out of silver, so used gold for this one. [ATTACH]
This 1924-S was covered with something, possibly varnish, when I got it from eBay for $165. [ATTACH] It took me a few years to work up my...

If a coin could be insulted, this 1923 should be, having sold on eBay for $31.15. I don’t know if this is full red or would be red-brown, but I...
Even a superb condition cent that was coined for circulation does not have surfaces that are as mirror-like as a proof. As mentioned above,...
Well done, Rob. Have a great Thanksgiving. It seems you have the “giving” part down pat.
Today I’m up to 1922. I don’t collect any varieties, even if the 1922 No Mint Mark has had a slot in the albums since, like, forever. Since most...
