With this one from Dick Osburn, shortly after he bought it at Baltimore. My 1840-49 set is a mixed bag, some battered, some graded/slabbed, a...
One of my favorite designs, and in a nice grade-- congrats!
Looks nice and original!
My opinion, formed before reading the other posts, is that the coin has uncirculated details but very likely a cleaning. On the obverse, I see...
Some intriguing thoughts, Paddy. It's not in a GSA holder, it's PCGS. Interestingly, the first coins out of the CC mint, the 1870 CC seated...
Thanks, and I meant to invite others to GTG, too. I'll post the grade before I go to bed tonight.
While it may be an MS68, as Red Tiger says, the likelihood is very small. In those lofty grades from 66up, luster is King and it's very hard to...
I only own several Morgans, none of which I think are nice as type example, you know, the sort where you would look at it and say "Hmm, nice...
wow, that is quite a find-- I've never heard of a seated half found in a roll recently! The coin looks xf in terms of wear, i can't tell if there...

There's a decent worn Fugio on the CU forum's BST for around 200$, from an honest seller. This Wood's Hibernia looks nice to me, and better than...
xf details, imo cleaned. See the rim of dark stuff around the devices, esp. on the reverse, and how bright the fields are? that indicates a prior...
I really like the classic head design. I agree with xf details, cleaned. I am not confident in my ability to differentiate corrosion from a rough...
providing it's genuine, I think it fits into your set nicely. congrats!
I love all the detail that coin has. Sure, the surfaces aren't great, but I'd love to have it in my collection. I frequently find that coins with...
It's a very common Trade dollar issue. The photos are not good quality, it is impossible to say with certainty if it is fake or not. At the very...
Enjoyed reading the reports; I had thought about going up Sat. AM,it's only about a 2 hr drive, but after 3 brain-numbing 12hr days in the office...
Very nice piece, Eduard, it looks virtually flawless. I believe most of these have a weakly struck reverse. Regarding my Vermont copper, it's a...
The same reverse design-- with different legends, of course, appears on the Vermont coins as well: [IMG]
that mushy fake one with the drain cleaner on it sold for about $135!!
