Very nice coin ALF, I really like the 1838-O Dimes, no-stars design. EF40?
Absolutely, I agree Catbert. This one caught your eye like it caught mine. A flipover double strike of S-82, a rare variety on its own right. Very...
900Fine and CappebustDimes have already stated that in their opinions, this coin is genuine. I agree with this. Furthermore, The seller is one of...
I am really sorry to hear this, Charmy. I am glad the material loss seems to have been minor. Something similar happened to me some years ago -...
I live in Germany but my heart is in TEXAS. Does that count? Anyway, MERRY CHRISTMAS ALL! FROHE WEIHNACHTEN!

French, hey Monsieur? Hmmm, then maybe you can help my son attribute this coin (which we he fell in love with, and 'had' to buy at a coin show)....

I agree with XF40 to XF45, and nice coin by the way.
Thanks all for your comments. Ardatirion, I actually only have now 2 aurei left in my collection, this one and a Claudius. Sold my other 2 to...
