It seems like here lately I have been seeing more misattributed coins in general. Not just large cents, but others as well. Ebay and on heritage.
No proofs, but a few business strikes. Now the 1871 is in it twice just to balance the photo. [IMG]
Congrats.
I agree, but will admit I did not go thru every liberty cap variety to see if any other popped up that could be a match.
Nice coin - I would have said XF-40 also from the first set of pictures. You can really see the weak strike across the obverse.
Lets see: 1) Large Cents 2) Bust Halves 3) Two Cents 4) Shield Nickels 5) Liberty Nickels
Ummm - there are plenty of idiots out there who would experiment on any given coin. At the same time 20-30 years ago cleaning coins was...
Well ebay might be the best bet as mentioned. Selling it as a set might work. It all depends on how quick you want the money. You can contact...

Dimes are't my thing either and the dark spotty toning keeps me from getting a feel for the luster to make a guess. I will swag it 66 just for...
Nice pickup Marshall.
Typically it makes me feel like I over-bid - then again I really don't worry about it if it is a coin I want.
I only glance at my copy on occasion. Usually mine is out dated - I usually only get them 1 or twice a year.
In this case I let luster rule to go 67, but I thought 66 when looking at it.
Nice start to the collection. And yeah I would get Penny Whimsy if you ever hope to attribute it. Lately on occasions I search amazon for...
Okay - here is just my opinion on using a $100 budget. I would first get the books mentioned and yes you should understand varieties. Not so...
