Seeing seated coinage like this and what is above is making me more and more fond of seated liberty coinage which I used to consider boring in the past. No more.

Tom - Why the hair pulling?

Hays

I did! It's pretty cool. Thanks!

Yes, that IS pretty cool buddy!

These are couple from that foreign hoard that I think are interesting, too!

 

Chris - What is this? It is a very cool looking coin!

Hays

Edited because I missed showing the other side.

Hays

Very cool looking!

It's 1880. Can you tell?

Whoa! Is that an error?

Hays

I don't know it - but it's VERY nice!

Hays

Hoot - What is that?

Cmon Chris, the least you could do is blur the breasts, for Bree and Emma's sake.

This one arrived yesterday:

 

 

I'm really starting to enjoy this series.

Whoa - did the mint start making these again?

Nice cent. What did it grade for?

Thanks Hays

Actually the Obverse is a borderline 64...maybe even a 63 due to one medium size hit under Libertys eye otherwise it's a 65 coin. Now the reverse is a 68 if there ever were one.......I kid you not there isn't a mark on it....it's phenominal

HA, ha - told you I was new at grading AND why I try to stay away from raw coins, for now. Man, it’s a beautiful coin. Of course, now there are even MORE beauties!

I’ve been trying for about an hour now to take a photo of my coin, but alas all I seem to get is a reflection. I guess everyone’s second hobby is photography!

Shane,

Those two toners are awesome!

I am surprised at the grade on the Morgan. The star is a no-brainer, but a MS64? The obverse looks like a 64, but the reverse is so clean – 66 maybe? I’ll admit I’m spreading some fairly new grading wings, but in my humble opinion with that clean a reverse it’s a solid 65.
