Again, thank you all for your opinions. Quite a spread from AU53 to MS2... this one seems difficult to grade, and the small size does not help. Is...
I'm guessing Paddy that you have many more than: (1873-1829) = 44 ?
Here are a couple more shots. Lighting conditions were a bit better today. (now I know why I don't collect half dimes actively - they are just...
I will be very interesting to hear what B. Noyes has to say about this coin. Another option may be Jack Robinson, by the way.
Thanks for the opinions, guys. Much appreciated. Paddy, thank you very much for the attribution! To my eyes the coin seems to have no wear at...
I have posted this one before, but now with a better camera and hopefully better pictures would like to see what you guys think. ps - The...
I am seeing at least an EAC AU50 coin, and a rather beautiful example at that. Interestingly, the coin pictured in the link which Marshall posted...

I love that story, an 1795 cent in AG for a buck!? I have never been that lucky. Love to see a pic of it if you have one. It works the other...

The first gold issues of the newly independent Chilean Republic followed very soon after independence in the form of the 8 Escudos piece. The year...
Thanks. I see some spots of green on the 1864 (no-L). Unfortunately I have my coins at the bank now (as I do most of the time on wife's orders),...
Thanks, Paddy. I have used verdicare for spot treatment on some of my ancients, but have never used it on a small cent. Which one do you think...
Paddy, does the term "RPD" refer to a doubling of the date? (got a lot to learnt here obviously)
As a natural extension of my focus on early cents, I also like and collect IHC's. I love the design and you guys have posted some really nice ones...
Here is another easy one: As or Dupondius of Pertinax, struck during his brief reign January 1. to 28. March 193. PERTINAX. 193 AD. Æ As or...
Thank you, John. Yes, I was amazed when he mentioned the price (80 euros). I have done a lot of business with this dealer over the years, so it is...
