Eugene's 19th/20th Century Liberty Design Type Set (No Gold) 的展示图片库
gorgeous, original brown surfaces. a great planchet. when the coin is tilted in the light all the hair relief detail comes into play!
tough, tough type coin to find with a reasonable planchet. this one seems to fit the bill with a non-porous, chocolate brown surface and strong vg-10 detail
pretty good match with the half dollar, a fair amount of luster(both sides) not visible in the pic
"the look". It took an instant to fall in love with this one. the dirt/grime(like on seated coinage) not only gives the coin a two-tone appearance but gives the devices some contrast which make them stand out to the eye.
O-108A, obvious original patina-such a thrill to own an early bustie in this grade! As part of a pure design set, this would serve the capped bust entry as, in this case, the half dime, dime and quarter would be unnecessary.
VERY nice medium brown planchet(screen may show it darker than is). Very light, even wear. Not as common to find this nice as people might think. I literally jumped on this coin as soon as I saw its availability at RCNH.
gorgeous AU55 here, the head is just a tad soft, the pic is not best either here but there is considerable detail in-hand. light gold with hints of green and rose; these colors produce a kaleidoscope effect when the coin is rotated in person! the flat pic only produces limited 2-dimensional characteristics. again it's the natural toning here that is unquestionable here.
an original, untampered-with album-toned piece, not so easy to find. soft liberty, but nice xf details otherwise
like the capped bust dime the sight of the coin immediately grabbed me. literally, a no-brainer purchase!
deceptively difficult to find this original and in the grade and common date I sought, this is a type collector dream coin! Civil War date is always a plus, but it is the way that the dirt and toning which gets into the dress folds that adds depth to the appearance. Thank you Alex Barna, for finding this special piece!
Purchases are now coming fewer and farther between. the quest for original coins gets more difficult, but here one came along with original patina and dirt in the perfect collector grade of vf-35! Nice that the clasp is all there. Strong Liberty for grade and even though hair detail could be better, nice head detail.
great match with the sister large cent in grade, date, color and eye-appeal. Yellow River Coins!
a wonderful copper with dreamy surfaces. very soft luster and a touch of red on the edges. a warm and inviting coin with no distractions and a tremendous pairing with the neighboring 1838! another TCC!
Granted, a splurge! Coins in 63 and under simply do not have a lustrous splash. This one is near gem and has plenty of luster. Check out the TRIPLE! die clash on the reverse!
Very lustrous with plenty of metal flow. Just enough gold patina to confirm its originality but it doesn't impede the flash factor!
Fortuitously found! Thanks to Larry Whitlow! White, lustrous, a good pairing with the Standing Liberty Quarter. Very nice strike which produces exceptional flow lines. The pic does not show it, but the metal flow of the eagle head appears on the obverse, amd moreso when tilted. It is part of the overall cartwheel.
A frosty and lustrous Barber Half with just a scattering of minor hits. White but not blast white, this coin has a beautiful skin that hints at being original, and is the farthest thing from a stripped and dipped out coin which is unfortunately so common these days. Wholesome and makes a great trio with the dime and quarter. superb example for the grade!
a very difficult but satisfying purchase. On an RCNH wishlist for grade, common date and originality, the last being particularly hard to find.
a wonderful birthday gift from my wife! Always wanted a blazer! In hand the scuffs seen in the pic are rather muted, and overall looks very clean. The usual fine s-mint strike. Very nice reverse!
an amazing upgrade/downgrade! perfect common date for type 40% the 1865 coin in the exact grade. But there's more!! this one has much more red color and fiery luster. nice hint of cherry red on the obverse! the way to go here. only a well struck, satiny luster 1883 no cent nickel would be a next such upgrade/downgrade!
A wonderful nickel from Larry Whitlow-PQ! Soft cartwheel, satin luster with beautiful fields and a nice strike. In hand, it is a great coin to savor, especially while you rotate it slowly. The satin look, while not as flashy as a brilliant or frosty luster is beautiful in its own way. Hard to put down, like a favorite scotch!
another great type coin that can be had at any premium grade for a small increase in price. One could still get an MS63 for little more than $10, great for young numismatists! This one has nice luster and is pleasing on the eye.
what is there to say?! very lustrous 64 with no leg friction. Just love the flow lines on these, which are very evident. The lines of the wings extended appear reversed on the obverse parapet; the upper part of Liberty and her shield produce the same effect below the reverse eagle.
Hard to figure how a 65 or greater would look so much better than this one. I ended up making some 40 attempts before hitting on this pic. The trick was a single hand-held 60W light bringing out the lines in Liberty's dress and eagle's breast feathers.
A prudent purchase at the 64 grade as a jump in 1 essentially triples the price. But what of this incredible luster?! The evenness of the cartwheel I believe, adds an extra frostiness to the whole coin.
