Nice coins, Marshall, I like them. BTW, the J. Crosby stamp is probably that of an arms inspector at the Springfield Arsenal. He inspected and...
Unfortunately, Greg Brunk did pass away a couple of months ago. While the manuscript for his new edition is nearly complete, there's still some...
Beautiful, Greenie! Well worth the wait I'd say, although aggravating. I just received a coin from the UK yesterday that took 21 days. Usual...
I used to have a nice collection of CWT's years ago and about a dozen suttler tokens. Eventually had to sell them to pay the bills...how boring:D...
That's a tough pill to swallow, marbury. I'm sorry to hear of your misfortune. This one is special so I'll remember it and keep it in mind while...
I think the whole set looks very nice. Have you considered keeping it or don't you have any particular interest in Lincoln cents? Bruce
You're getting a lot of good suggestions on how to clean your coins, but some may not be effective for your particular damage. I'd take it slow...
Sorry to hear about your coins, but there's a lot of help for you here and elsewhere. And remember at the end of the day you still have a nice...
A beautiful coin for sure. BTW, a little sandpaper will get the "gunk" off.:eek: Seriously, do you plan on removing it from the slab? What's it...

Back then skilled workers made about a dollar or so a day (usually 10 or more hours a day) and unskilled less. That's when a cent had some buying...
The only distracting marks are the scratches, but still a nice coin. I would have bought it too. Bruce
I like your coin, Eduard. Chain cents are so unique and special that just having one is a great feeling. The good thing about them is that the...
I have a great interest in the Half Cent series. This one is a real beauty, Eduard. Bruce
I no longer have the collection...had to sell everything about 10 years ago. I still have my stock book though. I did have a 1794 VF-20 (B1 C1),...
I like them both...very much. I had a huge collection of Half Cents at one time including many Unc. Never had a 1793 though. Bruce
I was thinking AU-55, Eduard. Beautiful coin for sure. Bruce
I've been to Trevose a few times but not for a couple of years now. I never seemed to find much of anything that interested me, plus it's a pretty...
Do you have any pictures to show us? Bruce
Hard to say, Raizac, but probably by Thies himself. Most examples have R. Thies on both sides, but the few that don't seem to have a number in...
