I paid $10 for this one on eBay recently. Based on the position of the date and what little remains of the reverse, the remaining devices are consistent with the "Closed Buds" transitional reverse. Obverse: Reverse:
This may not be everyone's cup of tea however I have a matching 1922 S end of roll tape toned. The same color green and blue toning .Nice and crusty album coin. That will accent the first page of the album. Its also top 50 peace $ vams .
Ya got to love the ulgy ones as much as the purdy ones.... how long did she sit? In an acid base paper held together by turn of the century Scotch tape! Kinda of like an old show gal.... showing her age. Beatiful!
It looks like one of Mike's coins (mikesmountainvalues) I love his stuff but it is generally out of my price range. Did I get it right?
€8.00 conversion = $8.48 plus €6.00 split between 5 coins won is $1.27 shipping. So $9.75 for this dime. Oh I forgot the tax!
You are absolutely correct! You must also binge looking at coins on the bay like me lol. This is actually my first time buying from him though. Good eye!
While yours is definitely nicer than mine, I believe that I have won the 'Cheapest seated liberty dime' challenge. Sellers pics, they accepted my offer of $3 with free shipping: Will be interesting to see how it looks in hand, will post pics once it arrives.
EDIT: I WAS WRONG--, but I'm not 100% on the mintmark possibility, will see what that looks like in person once it arrives, and give y'all an update. Ironic thing is that the seller claims it is an 1873-P, but it's pretty obvious that it is in fact an 1828 I was wrong lol
Again, hard to tell due to the sellers TERRIBLE photos. Prob why everyone else was scared to make an offer on it.
Thing is, there were no seated-liberty coins struck in 1828. The series didn't start until 1838. Since the third digit can't be a 2, it's probably a 7, and the last looks more like a 3 than an 8. Better lighting will show whether there's a mintmark or not. The seller's probably telling the truth, though.
Interesting.... shows what I know about seated liberty dimes lol.. I bought it mostly for the silver content- I will learn more about these soon, but my main focus is IHP
1880 odd-001 snow 8a >$40. But wait look here at this link on the variety https://www.indianvarieties.com/cents/indian-head-cents/1880-indian-head-penny/1880-odd-001/ and see the link below too. This is my second one I've found my first a Au.55 Plate coin. http://www.indiancentvarieties.com/1880_variety008.html @Hoky77
WOW! Nice find, I love a good IHP variety. Never have owned one of these myself, but will keep an eye out for it. If you'd give your example an acetone dip, it would be an even nicer example. Would remove a lot of that gunk around the lettering.
