It has been a little while since I had anything new too post. A couple of recent additions to my 34-58 Lincoln Wheat set
I have anxiously been waiting for this one to be delivered since I bought it 10 days ago. The seller had one semi decent photo of the obverse and a scan of both sides of the coin in the listing. I could see some nice color in the one decent photo of the obverse and after examining the reverse scan pretty thoroughly, I thought there was a chance of there being some color on the reverse too. When I finally got the coin today I was blown away. The color on this one is SO much better than anything I imagined. Here are the sellers pics: And here is what I got in the mail:
Picked this up at my local shop. I saw something in the display case that had fallen to the bottom. I told the owner if he fished it out I would buy it no matter what. Ended up being a fractional note and I got it for 8 bucks. I have no idea the worth but it's paper from 1863. So cool.
Looks like it's from Low Country Coin. If it is, they come to some of the shows I attend. Very nice guys and fairly accurate with their grades they put on their flips.
I got this in change today a 2005 West Virginia Bridge is Out striking error. I have seen a few MS 66 before. 25c you can Get cheaper.
It is from them. I looked through a lot of their other listings today. I saw a lot of good stuff, and I do agree their grades seemed to be pretty accurate for the most part.
Got my first 3 cent. Also another large, I think the best grade I own. What do you all think of it's grade?
I picked this one up on Monday - NGC MS65 RB. Has real nice radial luster, and an almost coffee-colored toning when seen in hand.
My 2015 Kennedys just came for my Dansco album--P, D, and S. I keep all the proofs separate. The whole collection is MS 65 or above for all years.
New pickup, 8 Reales 1821 Zs (Zacatecas) AZ/RG variety. NGC XF45. One of the last Spanish dollars minted in Mexico.
