<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Spark1951, post: 26195817, member: 90692&quot;]Here is the last coin from the four I got from the flea market last April 28.&nbsp; It was on the second shelf in the back in poor light and I quickly scanned it.&nbsp; California statehood year, that was enough to seal the deal but I got another surprise.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1672605[/ATTACH] </p><p>Around VG10, in the poor light and no loop I thought it was G4.&nbsp; The reverse was the surprise...it has lots of original color and is around F12.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1672606[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Hard to see from the pics but the obverse is brown but the reverse is red brown.&nbsp; Value-wise it settles out worth $7.50 more than what I paid for it which was $20.&nbsp; But it will never be sold by me, having become an instant heirloom item.&nbsp; It will go to one of my sons, my collection being divided equally between the 2 of them.</p><p><br /></p><p>The third coin was a 2021 2 Pound Britannia, which turned out to have facial hairlines and milk spots so I won&#039;t post it.&nbsp; It is still a beautiful gem of a coin and it was my first pick up of those.</p><p><br /></p><p>I hope you enjoy the post...Spark[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
