Looks like a typical copper-nickel version. Nice details. This 1860-1864 copper-nickel type is Numista-1108. They are noticeably thicker than...
As I suspect you know but mistyped, that is a Reeded Edge Capped Bust half. The Draped Bust half ended in 1807. I think you have a handsome coin...
I always like to cater to the 7070 collectors. Folks after my own heart. I did the 7070 2-1/2 times, back in the day, before I switched to slabs.

WOW!!! Thank you for that! I love this Soho stuff, but make no pretense at all of scholarship. I’m glad there are collectors like you out there.

Good morning, and welcome to February 4th. Today we'll move on to our next type, which is the Liberty Seated Half Dime Legend (1860-73). As is...
Good luck! Boy, if you carried that Peace dollar much longer in your pocket, it would become featureless! :P [IMG]
Yes. It was a little scary. The Middle Eastern $5 Indian in that video would've totally fooled me. Some of those others might have as well.
Very educational. Thanks. I seldom have the attention span to sit through YouTube videos, but I took the time to watch this one.
Note to self: might be time to consign a few pieces to GC... hmm...
Glad you're back. I wondered what had happened to you. You fell off the map after I shipped your Giveaway #124 prize. I presume you got it?...
