Congratulations! It must be very satisfying to have completed the set. Is this the rarest die marriage for 1809-1835?
Stacks/Bowers posted one of these on Instagram a week or two ago, and I laughed when I saw it. This is the kind of piece that could get someone...
I feel like it’s been not that long ago since I saw @sakata post, but it’s been over two years since his last post! Time really does fly.
Is it embedded sandblasting media? I thought I remember reading somewhere that the mint sandblasted some of the early 1900s proof coins (the...
These are remarkably nice examples! I think my favorite is the 1796 quarter. So many of them have been mistreated over the years, but yours...
That’s a very nice 1828 quarter! Its die marriage is B-1, in case you weren’t already aware. You are definitely correct that bust quarters are...
When I wrote my initial post about my large capped bust quarters back in 2017, I noted that the collection was tentatively complete since I didn’t...
I agree that the top one looks much nicer. The bottom one has more edge bumps and dings in the fields, and the adjustment marks do reduce the eye...
It appears to be AU with reasonably original toning, and it doesn’t jump out at me as being fake. That said, all sorts of surprises (e.g.,...
MS65? This is a nice example of my favorite classic commemorative!
I don’t have any information, but his email address can be found at the bottom of this page:...
Probably in the AU range. The color of the obverse seems a little bit off to me, so it may have been cleaned or could have sustained light...
Half cents are attributed with Cohen varieties (Newcomb varieties are for the middle and late date large cents). There appears to be only one die...
I went 9, since the circulated cameo appearance is really nice. I recently purchased this one for my Dansco 7070 album. It’s not as nice as yours,...
DeWine posted this yesterday, so I would be extremely weary of attending any large gathering in the Cincinnati area. I’m sure it’ll be even worse...
I love the heavy die breaks on the reverse of these coins. I hope to get one someday, because it is a great example of how the mint pushed their...
[ATTACH] Chopper is good for outrageous entertainment value, but not for good coin buying opportunities.
That does appear to be an NC-11! According to the 1st edition Mega Redbook, there are four die marriages with that obverse die: NC-8, S-25, S-26,...
I’ll jump on the MS64 bandwagon also. This is a nice example of my favorite commemorative!
It took me about 2 seconds to get the page to open up with no images and about 28 seconds for the images to start to load in.
