Here’s one way. Or maybe Mercury dimes? They would make it possible to step back to 1916. Then you could step across to some Barbers. [ATTACH]
I am unlikely to try to upgrade this 1924-D because I like the toning. Purchased raw at my local coin shop for $130. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Say what, now? What is that used for?
I was going to pop both of these in the mail for ya, so I taped them to a postcard. They are pretty darn heavy. On my way to the mailbox they tore...
This 1924 is another eBay purchase for $41. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
NGC Coin Explorer states that “Most 1923-S cents were coined from worn dies that displayed incomplete or distorted details.” The details are not...

Yes, I did. All my coins are now in an Intercept Shield album to keep them from deteriorating. It’s also easy to slide the plastic panels out so I...
I won this one from Great Collections for $138.60. This was a lot for me, but then again I really love the look. Formerly graded MS65 RB in an NGC...
This 1920-S came from the same eBay seller as the 1920-D, for $102.50. I like well-struck coins that, to me, represent the design as it was meant...
1920-D eBay vendor’s photo [ATTACH] I paid $87.78 and the coin turned out to actually look like this. I can actually understand using slightly...
