<p>[QUOTE=&quot;seeker007, post: 172583, member: 6898&quot;]Well, I finally did it.&nbsp; I studied ONE type coin for a few weeks, looked at a few shops, and ...*DRUMROLL*.....Bought my &quot;first&quot; coin!&nbsp; I know, seems pretty humourous to you veterns, but it was my fist non-found-in-change-actually- spent -money-on&nbsp; coin.&nbsp;&nbsp; I tried to scan it, but that didn&#039;t work well.&nbsp; Have to get a camera and figure it out.&nbsp; It is an 1865 US 2-Cent AU55 .&nbsp; I checked it over and over , and the guy was nice enough not to rush me and gave me a few pointers.&nbsp; It is choco brown with a bit of red luster over the whole coin. Kind of an orangey fading to brown look&nbsp; It talked - so I bought.&nbsp; All horizonatl/vertical shield lines unworn.&nbsp; The &quot;We&quot; is sharp and and the other grade points look very good.&nbsp; Has the &quot;Fancy flip&quot; five on the date.&nbsp; .&nbsp; Anyway, I had fun.&nbsp;&nbsp; I think I may have opened Pandora&#039;s Box.&nbsp; Before the first coin, I could still have gotten away...Now I am hooked![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
