PCGS MS63 BN. I always wanted a Mint State King George halfpenny, either Red or Red-Brown UNC. This one is a Brown, but a nice Brown with lots...
Looks like it's from the '20s, I'd guess. Even a no-date/partial-date Buffalo is a fun find.
Update: Speedy response from CNG. They are going to take the coin back. I'll find another JQA pedigree someday, hopefully with the original...
Never pick a coin up off the table without the dealer's consent. I once did this and got snapped at. It was an overreaction on his part- we were...
Oh, and to be fair and accurate, NGC did not charge me for the pedigree fee. I was initially under the impression they had, since I did after all...

Unusual to see early ones in circulation! Just think, that '21 has been circulating for a century!
Wow, coingrats. I have never gotten a Merc in circulation.
Before [IMG] [IMG] After [IMG] [IMG] Honestly, I don't see much difference, but if you say so...
The 20c would be cool with the pinback replaced. Except when worn as a brooch, you couldn't see the mintmark on it.
ROFL :p
Ouch. But that's still a Bust dollar! I can understand holeys. I try to avoid ugly, but sometimes you've gotta do what you've gotta do, as...
