I've got one farthing and one halfpenny which should be enough but I may get another that shows the brass splasher better like this one.
Very nice!
There were no mixed copper and steel cents, the legit errors were struck on leftover 1942 copper planchets. Any steel cents with copper showing...
I was looking for a Gordian III double denarius on ebay and found a really nice one in a Littleton display type card, with information on Gordian...
I don't know of ANY seasoned collectors who deal with Littleton.
The normal design of the quarter has the left side of the door more prominent than the right. The coin is heavily circulated and I just can't...

Very nice! This is the opposite end of the spectrum, this coin is worn, scratched and cleaned, but one of only 8 currently known. It's a...
Thank you for your insight. The Cohen hoard of Virginia halfpennies, and the Bank of New York keg of Fugios provided a pretty good supply of high...
You certainly have to be prepared to make concessions when it comes to colonials. They definitely aren’t the kind of coins you insist on ms70’s!...
I hope I'm wrong, but boy it has the look of a cast piece to me.
