[QUOTE="Detecto92, post: 1778294, member: 75105"]I went with the 1806 Half Penny. Sorry to waste everyone's time, I wasn't reading rows correctly, I thought it said $295, but it was only $225, so I got it. According to NGC guide, it's worth $250 in MS60, this is MS63, so I felt $225 was a great price. It does not have that out of place mint red that some have, and it's not dark like some. I love the patina. Since the min for layaway is $300, I tossed in this beautiful 1898 Maundy 4 pence. MS66!! MS63 ins $50.00, so I think $89.00 was a good price.
