Huh? Jackson has no visible hat at all, and Lee's is on his head. o_O Or are you discussing something other than the Stone Mountain half?
Perfect for the grade. White, but not too white. I sold my AU example because it was just a bit too white for my taste. That hint of peripheral...
Excellent. I learned a few of the nuances I hadn’t known before. Thanks.
(I've made some progress on this set since the picture was taken- got one of the Seated dollars, for instance.) [IMG] Sold these. [IMG]
Thinkin' 'bout it.
Those are all quite handsome, @Sallent.
Keep it up, Sal. You've come up with some good themes. And in fact, there are plenty of Sterling silver coins. .925 silver (aka Sterling) was...

Yes, a 1909 VDB matte proof would be worth even more than the 1909-S VDB business strike, despite the fact that the latter is the big key date for...
Proof Lincoln cents in 1909 were matte proofs, and have a distinctive appearance. Yours is not a matte proof. It is a regular business strike....
I’m a Southerner born and bred, but my ancestors fought for the Union in the Civil War, so I reckon we were on the right side of history that...
I'll bet that's a stunner in hand.
