<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Marshall, post: 808196, member: 21705&quot;]Sometimes you get something at a coin show you wouldn&#039;t have considered otherwise. I collect early date large cents, but a dealer without any I was interested in showed me the most beautiful 1837 which at first glance looked to be in VF from the reverse.</p><p><br /></p><p>I paid a VF price for it and when I got it home, it turned out to be a rare variety which was always struck with a weak reverse. Upon further examination, I could see NO actual wear and now believe it to be AU58 or higher AND with CHOICE surfaces and color. The only thing missing is mint luster and that might actually detract from the eye appeal.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now all this happened 20 years ago, but I never would have gotten this prize without having attended the show.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
