I was trying to see the Series date but it's too small for me to read. I can read the serial numbers okay; they're large enough.
Here are the images that wouldn't post yesterday. Nothing special. Just a coin I didn't have. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I got there shortly after 10. Wandered around for a while and chatted with a few of the dealers. Bought only one coin, a 1920 Maine Early...
That's what I tentatively came up with. But I need sharper images to confirm that.
Ooooo, Dec 11! That's tomorrow. Maybe I'll try to be there.
Nice. VERY nice! It's the sort of thing that I've been contemplating for the last year or so.
Nice coin. What I like about it (besides the die crack on the reverse) is the mint mark on the obverse. Only recently did I learn that there was...
I agree with @Inspector43. But sometimes I forget to thank the many in here who've helped me. I started collecting in 1955 off and on until I got...
Oops, I had to adjust the type set count. I had two duplicates added in. And I had included 5 notes that aren't $1 bills. So the set count drops...
Relax. You'll get it back in about 4 months, maybe more. Unless PCGS has gotten their process in gear.
I just got the last two notes needed to complete my 1928-1957B $1 small-size paper money Type Set. Yes, completed... EXCEPT for five notes that...
I can't see it being used for older coins. And don't forget EAC Grading. Most graders can home in on the same grades for Modern coins. (In my...

Fortunately (for me), I won't be around for this to affect me.
Here's mine. I haven't ID'ed the Browning number yet.[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]

There are two coins on my bucket list: -- a 1796 Quarter Dollar/Draped Bust/Small Eagle Reverse -- a 1796 or 1797 Half Dollar/Draped Bust/Small...
Weak strike (best evidence is the lack of details on the shield). Tough to grade. If it's not an AU-58, I'd give it an MS-63.
My small-size $1 notes collection covers from 1928 through 1969-D. Here's two new additions: 1935-D Star [ATTACH][ATTACH] 1957 [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...
GENERAL STATEMENT: This coin falls in the category of EAC (Early American Copper). EAC covers US Mint-struck half cent and large cent copper coins...
