[QUOTE="kanga, post: 830025, member: 9270"]As advertised I went to the Baltimore Whitman show yesterday morning (10AM). Not particularly crowded. My gauge is whether I can belly-up to most dealers' tables without trouble, and that was the case. I stopped by and visited with Charmy for a few minutes, but that was the only CT person I encountered. I still have trouble finding slabbed Classic Head half cents and Capped Bust half dimes. I suspect I'm going to have to look at raw coins and hope I can detect the cleaned ones. So, what [B]DID[/B] I buy? #1 - A raw 1915-S Lincoln to replace the one I had which had a couple verdigris spots on it. I don't have it to show since it went in to PCGS for slabbing. It's expected to come back at least AU-58. #2 - A raw 1794 (Head of 1794) Liberty Cap cent. This coin is for my type set. I also don't have it to show since it went in to PCGS for slabbing. It's expected to come back in the VF-30 to XF-40 range. #3 - A 1806 Draped Bust (Heraldic Eagle reverse; Knob 6, Large Stars) half dollar. This coin is also for my type set. It's in a PCGS XF-40 slab with a CAC sticker (my first). And this time I [B]DO[/B] have an image. [IMG]http://www.dcderoo.com/50-1806-Final-txt.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE]
