This is a smooth little coin with honest wear, but otherwise nice. The nice thing is that it has just enough left to attribute as S-64 R5-. the...
This is one of my rarer varieties (R5+, one of the tougher ones at that) which appears to have been lacquered at some time in the distant past....
I know what you mean. I had estimated less than half of what I came up with before I actually took an inventory. It's like kids, they grow up fast.
I do NOT collect bullion and yet I routinely carried my entire collection around. It only contained four boxes and about 200 coins. Retail is...
Confederate coins have been heavily imitated through the years so the odds of finding an original are less than 1 in a thousand. But there's...
My eyes are getting bad. It looks like a bit of doubling at the top of TRUST to me, but I'm sure you would have noticed if it were actually there.
Circulated are fairly easy to spot because of differing toning of silver verses clad (lighter and whiter). Uncirculated or near uncirculated are...
Yes. Obverse 12 was used on S-259 and S-260.
I only checked out 1803 obverses, but the HWH left of the upright of R along with the 1 close to the hair and the 8 and the 0 relatively close...
The best identifiers I can find are the width of ER eliminating Obverse 22 which is closer and a slightly larger gap between the top of the 8 and...
I'm an early copper guy. If you can be satisfied with something else, avoid early copper. It's like a fine woman who is very jealous.

I think this justifies my pattern of attributing the obverses and reverses independently (primarily looking for new mules) rather than from the...
One thing I really like about your collection is the evenness of wear. I usually see consistency of all but keys with them being a grade or two...
This is a good assortment of similar coinage:...
Looking at it this morning, I'm quite certain of the attribution as S-82. The 7 is closer to the 9 than on the S-83.
That is correct. This is a singular example of die state progression being used as subvarieties leading to the S-266a, S-266b and S-266c. They are...
This is one you have to look at closely. I'm quite certain it is Reverse B, but the obverse is worn and the Obverse attribution of Obverse 1 is a...
Let us know if the holder also turns out to be a fake.
This is how many scams start. The broker claims to be selling 36,000 shares at $10 each when in reality he sells 150,000 shares and claims the...
