I drifted away from collecting US coins because I got tired of the structure of collecting sets. A 1916 Walking Liberty Half Dollar does not look...
It's a nice looking F-12. The S mint halves from the 20s tend to be a bit weak. I look for definition under Liberty's breast on coins of this...
I have never started an auction at more than a dollar and have always gotten a fair price. I have listed gold half eagles at $1 and they sat at...

Marshall, I have a copy of Penny Whimsy by Sheldon on the way and maybe a copy of Breen's Encyclopedia of Early US Cents 1793-1814. This is an...
The tag does say Nowak. I just included the tag in the pictures for reference. I am just learning about attributing these early coins beyond the...
Beats the heck out of me. I hope he is famous.:D
This is the 1794 Cent that I mentioned in the tread that I kinda high jacked. The pictures came out better than I expected they would and...
