    This is a coin I had one of back in the day when I was a child and first started collecting, except mine was a VF 1865 type. This one has beautiful die polishing marks in the reverse. I just love these odd denomination types. So when a very gem example turned up l, I couldn't pass it up.

    The die polish is so extreme it removed one of the leaf stems! Wow. Very nice piece.

    Outstanding Sargent Sallent! I only have one 1866 -Cent piece. Not nearly as nice as yours though. :rolleyes:

    Really nice! I've had a few, including at least one regular proof and one Cameo proof, but this MS example was the last one I had in my collection. It was of rather modest technical grade but had really sweet pastel toning on it. Since I sold it, I have been without one for a little while. I'll get another one day.
