<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lordmarcovan, post: 2734323, member: 10461&quot;]Oh, no, wait!&nbsp; THIS was my most recent one, from just last year!</p><p><br /></p><p>It had a little rim nick.&nbsp; Tradedollarnut on Collectors Universe (The One, the Mighty) gave it a 50-50 chance of slabbing if I would have submitted it, but I didn&#039;t.&nbsp; Rim nick aside, this one had what I consider perfect black-and-white &quot;CircCam&quot; (Circulation Cameo) toning.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k173/lordmarcovan/1877-S-T-022500-coin.png" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Like your 7070 set, I bought this one for a 7-piece Capital Plastics Seated Liberty type set.&nbsp; That was a fun &quot;short set&quot;, let me tell you!&nbsp; (Sort of like a &quot;mini-7070&quot;, in a way.)</p><p><br /></p><p>I tried for all coins with &quot;crusty&quot;, original &quot;CircCam&quot; appearance.&nbsp; Here is the set, partway through.&nbsp; I ended up swapping the set with five coins (minus the Seated dollar and 20c) for a killer <a href="http://www.pcgs.com/cert/81824099" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.pcgs.com/cert/81824099" rel="nofollow">Liberian</a> coin.&nbsp; The new owner added the dollar you see in these pix, and later found a nice CircCam 20c piece too.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i798.photobucket.com/albums/yy265/markengelstad/IMG_3326_zpsgyt8awuj.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i798.photobucket.com/albums/yy265/markengelstad/IMG_3327_zpsvc1mezcw.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Anyway, I post this by way of suggesting that if you go for that nice &quot;crusty&quot; original look on your circ Type coins, you&#039;ll probably do better when the time to sell or swap &#039;em comes around.&nbsp; My preferred &quot;CircCam&quot; look is a bit dark for some folks&#039; taste- but I like the contrast.&nbsp; Your Trade $ in the OP has a nice original grey look, though, which forgives some of its minor flaws.</p><p><br /></p><p>Keep up the good work!&nbsp; Tag me if you add any more 7070 stuff.&nbsp; Though I am primarily a &quot;Darkside&quot; (World &amp; Ancient) guy, I do like 19th century US Type- and yes, especially those &quot;bread and butter&quot;, &quot;working class&quot; circulated ones.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
