Just picked up this very nice looking 1797 FM 1/2 Real. It looks a little nicer in hand than it photographs…still has a little luster and some...
He has some really great stuff. It’s been a lot of fun helping him assemble his collection. He started when he was about 5.

My 11 year old son cleaned out his various coin boxes and bins and listed some bulk lots on eBay a couple weeks ago in order to generate some...
The ‘21 Peace dollar arrived today and it is about what I expected. Certainly cleaned at some point as evidenced by the clear hairlines. It’s a...
I’d be curious to know what people think about this ‘21 Peace. It is not mine, nor will it be in the future. I’d put it as AU details cleaned....

Also, since you seem to enjoy 1/2 dimes, here are three from my son’s type book. He’s only 11, but he’s been working on the type book for 4 years...
@Paddy54 you seem to know quite a bit about this series. What would you estimate the value of my coin at? It’s tough to determine comps from...
I’d love an attribution! I notice some die clashing.
Here’s an 1853 Arrows Half Dime I just received in the mail . Sellers photos were less than great so I took a bit of a chance on this one. These...
That looks like a pretty accurate VAM match…I was wishfully hoping for 1F (struck from proof dies) to justify the hairlines.
And after a quick (:60) dip in the acetone spa…there are some visible hairlines, likely from an old wipe but they are only visible at a certain...
