[QUOTE="rick, post: 439181, member: 1235"]I'd say it was worth it. 2008 has been a good year for my collection. [IMG]http://www.rickscoinstop.com/Coin%20Images/1803-British-Half-Guinea.jpg[/IMG] 1803 Half Guinea. :D The last in a three year run for this type, it replaced the spade reverse in 1801. This one has a nice orange gold tone, with beautiful luster. The image was difficult through the ICG slab - caused some shadow problems. I had to rotate the light quite a bit to get a shot I was most happy with. I was tempted to crack the plastic just to get a better image. So end my 2008 Numismatic year... ...Yeah, right, I didn't even type that with a straight face. ;)[/QUOTE]
