[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 3144241, member: 10461"]I understand and would semi-agree most of the time. I'm more into the "World Coins With Character" thing, as you might have seen, and I'll miss that French essai in particular, though as [USER=77976]@Nathan401[/USER] mentioned, I got to enjoy it for a while. BUT I'm happy to get this large cent to enjoy for a while, and I always wanted a Randall Hoard piece. I've owned one MS63 Braided Hair cent before, but this is my first MS example of the earlier Coronet type. And as a US coin, it will be more "liquid" should I wish to swap it down the line for something else later. Had I not developed a somewhat detached attitude over my years of having a "revolving" collection, I never could have parted with the two pieces I just did. (I had just gotten that Irish gunmoney piece and gotten it slabbed, in fact.) But I already have my eye on another French piece, and some ideas about something Irish... :)[/QUOTE]
