Catbert, that coin looks familiar. Is this a recent acquisition? I need an 1848-O so I may have seen it.
I haven't seen one in over ten years in change. It also means I'm old. I recall looking for the first clad coins back in 1965. We didn't...
Here's another one but the dimbulbs at TrueView bleached out the dark fields ruining the circulated cameo look whereby the lighter toned Ms....
This is a nice pair of circulated cameo coins. The blue tint to the 46-O is due to correcting the orange tint in the TrueView to better match the...
Thanks! I like it as well and it's my avatar coin on the CU forums. It's been lightly brushed in the past so that there are some fine hairlines,...
Here are some new TrueViews of newly graded or crossed coins. I agree with all of the grades. NGC AU58 crossed to PCGS AU55 [ATTACH] PCGS VF30...
I doubt they will ever get this attribution correct because it would require them to do a reed count. Despite explicit instructions to do a reed...
PCGS flunks overdates. My early die state WB-1 1855/54 mysteriously misidentified as an PCGS VF35 1855 normal date. The world wonders.[ATTACH]...
Actually, you should sell yours to me, Catbert. I've been enjoying the coin for the past 5 minutes.
Not Catbert! My lone colorful coin and you want it for a duplicate? I work the eBay VG-VF SLH 'coal mines' while he picks all the flowers. I'm...
The coin shows AU50 details and surprising luster. Some minor corrosion spots on the obverse and granularity on the thigh may have knocked it...
I do as well. I like the small mintages and searching for decent coins on eBay. Here are a few now graded. XF40 Mintage 50,000 [ATTACH] XF40...
I'm currently getting my SLH collection graded and crossed for the PCGS registry. As I empty my Dansco, get coins graded, and add them to my...

This is new territory for me and it's relatively unexplored. I usually search other dates for rare or new DMs. 74-77 Philly halves have been...
There are a lot of undescribed DMs out there for the 77-P. Very few have been described. BB hasn't gotten to them yet. I asked if he wanted to...
Good suggestion! I have so far contacted SLH experts, several major seated coin dealers, and collectors on coin message boards to see if they...
I just received this 1877 SLH with a large die crack on the reverse, and numerous fine die cracks around the periphery of the obverse (stars 1-13,...
I recently purchased a 77-P with a large die break from (STATE)S through the motto and down the right wing to the tip. The reverse also has fine,...
