Paid about $12 for this AT'd 1915-S Lincoln. It's really sad seeing one of the toughest mint state dates in this shape, but I figured it was a deal at that price.
I played hooky from work for an hour this afternoon. The assistant at the LCS sets aside toned coins because he knows I like to photograph them. This was free, or considering face value, they gave me $.01 to carry this away.
Bought a small collection on the 'Bay and found these beauties hiding in the "herd". Considering some of the other coins in the lot, they were basically free. Or, at least under a buck a piece.
Picked this up today from a LCS in a set marked as a Type 1 for whatever gray sheet bid is for a T1 set. Also contained a T2 Jefferson. 1981 S Proof Susan B Anthony Dollar (Type 2 mint mark)
I like the look of these 1942 Lincoln proofs. Not sure if the price guide of $195 (at PR65 RD) is reflective of reality, since I paid $30 plus shipping for this beauty.
$42!?! Was a buy-it-now on eBay. Despite the scratched up holder, this was a steal of a deal! Check out that die gouge!
Another Old Copper Cent which though dateless, is attributable: This was purchased as a dateless bust cent and turns out to be a 1797 S-124 R5+. Supposedly 31-45 known though I now have three. The price? $7.50 plus $4.99 postage.
This is another pick up just to take advantage of combined shipping. $20 I can't tell if it's luster that's starting to tone or it's been cleaned.
