[QUOTE="stevereecy, post: 4829576, member: 19884"]Last two of my “new” coins came in. I got home and found these waiting for me after a hard day at work. I have to say I’m really enjoying collecting like this. First I saw this error nickel eBay and had to have it. I thought it was a good price compared to others. I didn’t realize until after I committed to this purchase that I already owned a loose error cent that I’ll likely send off to be graded. But I like this one better because of the silver color and the portions of the actual coin look gemmy to me. So I guess the grade includes the bag marks on the planchette. I never knew that! [ATTACH=full]1168120[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1168121[/ATTACH] And then I got this gold piece. As a Vicky chaser I love this. But it also seems like a good gold coin to purchase right now when you consider weight and numismatic value. I love the reverse of this one! It’s my avatar. I had to stretch to buy this one but I’ve never regretted doing that with a nice collectible. [ATTACH=full]1168123[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1168124[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
