That's a nice princess! Your patience was rewarded, she looks purely original to me.
That's a great coin you have there, Kanga! I think I need some more education before I venture into that difficult area. Eduard, thanks for...
Thanks again, Mark. I agree it's an O-126, My copy of the Stack's Orlando sale from Jan. has both the O-126 and O-127 listed, the former has the...
That was fast! Thanks, Mark. The photos came out a bit dark, I'll have to reshoot them sometime, but of course it's locked up in the sdb. It's...
On another thread, HT asked ".. what else do you have squirreled away?" Not much else, but I do have an interesting early half dollar. Here are...
Thanks for the attribution, friends. Another bonus of posting on this forum!
Yeah, I think the eagle and snake thing is pretty neat- very much primitive art! The three centers always create a frenzy when they come up for...

Thanks for sharing this one with us, Eduard, that's a lovely example of the type!
Thanks for the comments, guys. Since I don't have anything brilliant to say about die varieties and whatever, I'll add that 1807 was the last year...
Sorry, I didn't notice that you live in Lebanon. I know, as I am sure you do too, that Lebanon is well known as a source for high-quality...
Lovely coin, who needs MS when you can find an AU like that? Nice pickup!
the 1833 half may be electroplated; too bad, as it started out as a really nice coin! The other two have that almost 200 year old patina and...
I bought this one a while ago, I just liked it for the originality and visible detail, even though it isn't especially rare (301,000+ struck)....
the 1877-cc is very hard to find in all grades. I think the coin posted would be a good deal at around $200, if the rim hits don't bother the...
Looking at some of the photos posted, I am concerned about what appears to be some granularity of the surfaces, especially around and within the...
