    Damaged 2 1/2 Dollar Liberty Head

    About ten years ago I purchased an otherwise quite attractive, EF-ish 1790-something US dollar from a seller in England. I paid only $200 or so...

    Post Your Walking Liberty Halfs

    Early WLHs are a lot tougher to find with meat and problem-free than the vast majority of folks realize. Your 1917 has a really nice look to it....

    Another take on wholesale prices
