<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Eduard, post: 347858, member: 8959&quot;]Hello everybody, i am so happy i just had to share this. </p><p><br /></p><p>I put in a few bids at the I and L Goldberg auction in mid-february, and managed to win just 1 coin: a 1811 Half Cent, C-4, rarity 4. Graded VG7.&nbsp; I did not win any of the 1796 Draped Bust cents i bid on, and really wanted. I was really disapointed . I decided then to take my chances on Ebay and bid on an 1796 D.B being offered, and won that too. </p><p><br /></p><p>Now, until today, that is 3-4 weks after both auctions closed i STILL had not received my coins. I was really worried and had already contacted the sellers a few times in case they got lost, or whatever.&nbsp; Well, luckily, not So!.&nbsp; I decided yo stay home today (bad cold), and guess what the postman brought! </p><p>So here they are finally, after 3-4 weeks on the road. I like both coins. The 1796 is not perfect, a Fine or so with some surface granularity. But pleasing overall, and no rim nicks. I forget now which variety it is. But it is not a particuarly rare one, R-3 or so. But a nice example for my collection.&nbsp;&nbsp; The 1811 half cent is nice too. A little darker than it was on the catalogue picture, but nice and overall smooth.</p><p>I just wonder why they took so long to get here?&nbsp; I guess they made a long stop at customs....</p><p>Regards</p><p>Ed[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
