<p>[QUOTE="Lugia, post: 1105591, member: 21025"]theres almost no way you could collect large cents and refuse to deal with damaged coins. i see nothing wrong with collecting damaged coins that would otherwise be unaffordable to the average person like a 1795 silver dollar or 1804 large cent. just make sure you know the dealers youre buying these coins from so you arent getting some counterfiet that sat in a rock tumbler for a week.</p><p> </p><p>these are 3 of my early large cents. a damaged S-30, damaged S-22 and problem free S-65. the S-30 is by far the worst looking but it was also the first one i got that had some real details. would i of still bought it if i had the other 2 first? probably not but that doesnt mean i regret buying it. the S-22 is VF-XF with light corrosion but that problem doesnt distract me at all. the F S-65 was sort of an impulse buy but im extremely happy to be able to say "i have a problem free liberty cap cent". none of those 3 are cheap but it didnt take my whole savings or collection to buy them so im fine having some damaged coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
