Sorry. I gambled and bought it raw off eBay for $455 around 2008 when an XF45 was valued at $900. The cheek has no marks on it, but the coin has...

Agreed. Here's another bargain coin won at auction that recently sold for four times more than what I paid for it. PCGS XF45 [ATTACH] And...
This was last year's bargain. An XF45 price for an ANACS AU55 that has since been upgraded to CACG AU58. Phil does a very nice job photographing...

I also have a complete set of Queen Victoria Newfoundland halves shown here. I'm 3-4 coins away from completing the entire set of Newfoundland...
When I got back into coin collecting, I was becoming far-sighted and decided to collect larger silver coins. I decided to try to collect Barber...
Happy birthday, @samclemens3991! That is a nice VF30 with attractive toning. IMO, VF30 is a good-looking grade for SLHs. My set averages out at...
That is a very nice set and I learned something. I didn't realize that the eagle 's tongue shows on the Reverse of '38 on the 1840-(O). I...

Thanks! I like your dollars sets and have considered collected a set of Peace dollars with gray toning. A complete album of dollars is an...
In hunting for duplicate coins to drop off with Great Collections at Summer FUN, I pulled out all of my Seated Liberty halves and assembled then...
