About $50 for a 63BN, 1900 or later. Lance.
Here are three 1864's. The copper-nickel, bronze, and L on Ribbon. Lance. [IMG][IMG] [IMG][IMG] [IMG][IMG]
Nice, Kanga! Here's mine over at PCGS. Photos for all of them. Lance. http://www.pcgs.com/setregistry/publishedset.aspx?s=91107&ac=1
It's just the "Overton book" to CBH collectors. Parsley is considered little more than the editor. (I think this is a little unfair but that's how...
Here's a PCGS XF45. Lance. [IMG][IMG] [IMG]
I didn't get around to attributing these. The first is probably an XF, and the second is an 1844/81, NGC AU50. Lance. [IMG][IMG] [IMG][IMG]

Kazkaboom's is pretty blue. :D I neglected to shoot a picture before MS70'ing it. Lance.
A forum member asked me to do a little test with MS70 and copper. So I did. I chose four coins. A full red, a RB with common toning, another RB...
