    I have a serious case of MS67 jealousy.

    Probably my last pickups for the next few months until I can get my house sold and settled into my next place. These beauties should hold me over though I think! May do GTGs when I get these in hand so will hold off on grades.

    Beautiful coins Bob. Love the look on the Merc. Looks like the luster is strong and when you rock the coin, that patina is even more amazing.

    Wow. That Indian head toning is just wow. The 2 cent'er is striking as well. I'm sure you'll get the itch to acquire some more once these arrive.

    Found this last week, I guess I just missed this one when looking through the older silver commemoratives. I just love the design on the reverse....

    A few new arrivals. Since I have both Franklin proofs from 1956, it was fun running down these for an assembled proof set. Hope you enjoy!

    The newest member of my small capped bust quarter set: 1837 B-3, R4. This one has a reverse die crack present through STATES; this die was used to strike 6 marriages: 1835 B-8, 1836 B-1 and B-5, and 1837 B-1, B-3, and B-4. 1837 is also the first year that the fineness of silver coins was changed from 89.24% silver to 90.00% silver. Graded F12 by PCGS.

    And now for a low grade acquisition:

    Obv.jpg Rev.jpg

    The backstory is that this was part of a four coin offering on eBay. But I recognized the variety and bid accordingly.

    A shill exposed my max bid and then refused to pay and the seller wanted my max bid ($225) rather than one increment over the next highest legitimate bid ($93.11).

    I passed since I felt the $93.11 should have been the price. Anyway, it was placed back on eBay and I won it for $125.43.

    In any event, I now have my third S-210 which is an R5+ (31-45 known) variety.

    This is what happens when you search EBay late at night...

    New pics freed from the slab... feels like a new acquisition, anyway. :) @lordmarcovan's slab cracking technique worked like a charm.

    (...I don't usually advocate cracking out coins for the Dansco, but I'm thinning the slabbed herd here and figured I'd sell this raw 1832 and keep the better coin (IMO) for my album.)
