I never set any store by Fivaz-Stanton varieties. I mean, more power to those who do- it's just not my cuppa tea, personally. 'Nother dug...

Yes, but the 1798/7 was worth even more. I sold both coins for him. Wish I had kept one. It would be nice to have one of these really sharp DB...
Yeah, dark copper is hard enough to photograph. Add a bit of porosity to the mix, and it gets even harder. Check out the one my local buddy dug....

Great find. Looks VF details to me, but hard to say for sure.
65 RD, though I agree that color based on those pix is just a guess. (So is my grade, but well, I suppose it's a semi-educated guess, at least.)

I'm on the 64 bandwagon. 65 wouldn't surprise me.
More from the "Quarter Notes" program. (2) 1999-P Delaware: "HORSE IN A ROUND" (1) 1999-P Georgia: "500M PEOPLE" (1) 1999-P Connecticut: "HAD A...
Yes. A great album coin indeed. Because of the rim bump, you'd need to deduct a bit from the expected value if you were going to sell it, of...
VF35 is way too low. I would say XF45, but only because I'd hope to see more luster for AU50. Really, I see nothing holding this coin back from...
A friend of mine dug a 1794 half cent down here (Glynn County, GA), in similar condition to that, at an old plantation site not far from here....
These threads got Featured, and deservingly so, but should have gotten many more replies and likes than they did. Great writeups.
