<p>[QUOTE=&quot;yakpoo, post: 734862, member: 18157&quot;]I typically don&#039;t spend much time on BIN listings except for modern proof/mint sets. After reading <b>illini420</b>&#039;s comment above, I thought I would give it a try with some other coins. Last night, I found a BIN offer on an 1809 Half Cent in VF/XF condition. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>It&#039;s a little hard to see what&#039;s going on around Liberty&#039;s face, but it looks to be just some patina rub. What&#039;s great about this coin is that it looks to be a Cohen-2 (scarce) variety. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I&#039;m on travel and don&#039;t have my books with me so I could be mistaken...but that&#039;s what I think it is. The coin cost me $195. That would be a bargain (imo) if it turns out to be a Cohen-2 in nice condition. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>These pictures aren&#039;t the best. I would appreciate any comments you care to post...please let me know if you think I got a good/bad deal.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://i664.photobucket.com/albums/vv10/Yakpoo/f85f_12.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i664.photobucket.com/albums/vv10/Yakpoo/BQE5CQBGkKGrHgoOKkEjlLmM-TBJ25PQOtw.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
