1795 FH $1 for the Registry Set

[SkyMan]

I've wanted one of these for some time now.  This was my big ticket purchase for the year.  It's graded PCGS VF30.  I always wonder what transactions these suckers witnessed in their lifetime... maybe part of a land purchase on the wild West frontier (say, near Pittsburgh)?  The images are by Bob Campbell, and I think he did an excellent job.

Very nice. I want one.

Very nice totally original coin. I see these become unaffordable in XF grades. Interesting though twice as many NGC coins have been graded at that level and would likely be less expensive offering a great opportunity if closely scrutinized.
