<p>[QUOTE=&quot;PennyGuy, post: 599435, member: 17502&quot;]Thanks for a great contest, going back in history was fun.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The first coin I purchased was this 1875 S 20 Cent Piece.&nbsp; I had started a type collection and study showed me that the odd types would have to be purchased.&nbsp; I went to one of the local shops in Flint MI, (on Fenton Road I believe)&nbsp; paid his price, seems like it was $15 or so.&nbsp; In 1961 all I could affort was this badly scratched example.&nbsp; But it served it&#039;s purpose.&nbsp; It was upgraded a number of years later, but I kept it all these years.&nbsp; To me it&#039;s one of those &quot;special&quot; coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
