<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Gallienus, post: 8394086, member: 42034&quot;]An old purchase but my coin buying is so infrequent that last year I only bought 1 coin.&nbsp; This year&#039;s better in that I&#039;ve gotten 2 but both are small.&nbsp; Anyhow this one (1797 1 dollar, 9x7 stars) was bought raw back around 2015 (below).&nbsp; It&#039;s from a major auction firm and was part of a large collection, mostly foreign, but none of it was slabbed. I would have concerns buying a raw small eagle dollar under almost any other circumstances.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1489550[/ATTACH]</p><p>Since the OP said &quot;A set of Busts, I suppose I have to post another one.&nbsp; This one (1806 1/2 dollar) is also not slabbed but only because I bought it back around 1982, well before slabs were invented.&nbsp; Wasn&#039;t planning on selling as they&#039;re so hard to come by so why should I slab it?</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1489551[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Okay, getting carried away: here&#039;s a 3rd one.&nbsp; This is the more common Capped Bust type (1830 1/2 dollar), but then again it cost me all of around $30 circa 1982.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1489552[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Truly getting carried away, but a long long time ago I did get a gripped edge 1797 large cent for face value.&nbsp; Sorry no photo but I should take one as I still have it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
