Here are a couple more newps for my personal collection. Unlike the last two groups I recently posted, I'm keeping BOTH of these 1864's. I really like the toning on the first one and, although you can't tell from the photo, the second one has a "medallion" strike - it's rotated 180 degrees! Even though I usually only keep one of each date/mint in my sets, there are a few where I have two of the same date because one is an error or variety and the other one is toned. Once in a while I get really lucky and have an error or variety on a beautifully toned coin! So, what are your thoughts on these two little guys?
Very beautiful. More oohs and ahhhs from me. Especially that 64 MS66. Now in this case if I was voting I would have you donate the 66 to your collection and that 64 to my collection. Very nice coins.
Charmy, these two are just breathtaking! Thanks so much for sharing them with us. You post some of the most amazing Cents I've ever seen!
Very very beautiful coins Charmy, thank you for sharing these with us next to LWCs the IHC is my favorite coin. Actually I can not tell a lie any coin is my favorite coin as long as it can tell a story. Kie
The 66RB is awesome great strike , toning and clean fields , another great coin from a great collection . Keep em coming . rzage
Keepers!! I have many multiples by date/mint, each coin has it's merits. This is the reason I don't use an album. Why limit yourself? Collect what you want to.
Thad, thanks for all your oohs and awwws - they are much appreciated, as always!! And I have to draw a line somewhere or I wouldn't be able to be a dealer!
