That's what I'm thinkin'. It's so hard to grade from photos, and my Morgan shots always look worse than the coin. My hunch is this one could...
Another good source of coins with fractions ? Why, California fractionals, of course ! Lots of 1/4 and 1/2 on those. Another coin with a...
LOVE the buffalo. Toning on these can be subtle, which makes 'em even more interesting. I have a '37 proof with subtle shades of green and red....
35 sharpness, heavy beatdown, net 10. I'll check Copper Quotes when I get home and get a $$$ number. And attribution.
Love it ! Hugely important coin, history-wise. Very nice. GRANPATRI GRACIA
Even with the high price of copper, it's worth more than melt. ;)
Here's one for ya, Charmy... since you like copper, I thought I would serve up a copper half dollar. Longacre's French Liberty head, struck in...
