Just had to pull the trigger on this one at the last second. A very nice type coin with CAC

 

This is an 1864 pattern Indian cent J-356a. Just got it this week.

 

FWIW, my own example (a nice F-something) has medal reverse. Got it many years ago and
never noticed that when I bought it, nor the many times I’ve seen it since in my Dansco. But who would check? “Everybody knows” it’s supposed to be coin reverse, right?

 

It was given to my daughter blast white so I stuck it on a wood shelf in my basement.

 

I loosened the strings on my money belt a little and finally won another busty at auction...

 

How long did that take?
Did the wood have stain on it?
Great looking tone!! I'd flip it and match the obverse.

 

It didn’t take that long. I’d guess 4 months. The wood is 1950’s era with old white paint.

 

won this one at the coin club raffle this week. 1942 S Netherlands East Indies one-tenth Gulden. The wheat cent is included for size reference.

 

Nothing too special. Just some fresh PL pocket change.

 

I was more attracted to this than to spending the same money on a higher grade more common commemorative.

 

Today's cherry pick from the Baltimore show. I ran into John Call ,and had some fun with him......I showed him this slab.... playing dumb....he sez thats a 1891 cc spitting eagle top 100 vam!
I was like where?.... It was good to meet him finally, and shake hands....I stopped by Toughcoins Mike wasn't around.


I also am always on the lookout for these and photo grade slabs...my dealer freind just took it in trade, im guessing he didn't know it was a spiting eagle vam.

 

Pick up points on the vam #3 1891 cc
