Like I said I took a few sets of modern set down to the coin shop to trade. Made a little more off them than I thought. I wanted that 1800 1/2 dime, but they had sold it. I went through the coins and immediately pulled out that 1795 half dime. Continuing through the boxes I found the 1820/19 - low grade, but a variety I needed. Right as I finished the box he brought me a stack of 5 CBH's. Needless to say I picked the 1811,1817 and 1820. Then while standing there I looked through the case and saw another 1806 quarter - I could see the die cracks and knew it was a different variety from last week. Varieties can be found in pictures names.
Varieties can be found in pictures name. Please let me know if you see one that is wrong. All comment and opinions are welcome.
Is there such a thing as a "you suck" award on this board? I can't assist with the variety attributions, but I love your new pieces. :kewl:
We need more smileys, like the NGC/NCS board has, so we can better express ourselves. :whistle: Ribbit Ps: Hey CB, I'll dig the hole :stooge: if you'll push him in.
Mark: Very nice, but 1) the varieties don't show ( I don't get he picture names). 2) you must have dumped a LOT of moderns!
LOL - if you look at the number of coins 32 modern (3 -6 coin sets, 3 - 4 coin sets) and I got 6 coins. I did have a nice amount left over. I did tell the dealer the next time he has a coin I want I will have him hold it and I will bring down the rest of the two coin sets and extras that I have. The only moderns I do not plan on letting go of are the silver eagles, proof sets(and variations) and maybe a few other odds and ends that I like. Maybe by then I will have found a market for that 1882 IHC. Like him, I agree moderns are nice, but these early coins are much nicer even in the lower grades.
