gorgeous, original brown surfaces. a great planchet. when the coin is tilted in the light all the hair relief detail comes into play!
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.
great match with the sister large cent in grade, date, color and eye-appeal. Yellow River Coins!
The perfect type coin in the maximum grade I could afford. smooth, problem-free surfaces, uniform dark chocolate brown. 1803, the perfect date. great obverse detail approaching vf20
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
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!
wholesome, original with nice strike save the A in states. the wear is nice and even and the feathers are very near complete!
Brick red patina! a red Indian that's not hard on the checkbook. the 19th century date is a plus. wholesome, original surfaces. In 64 and above these start to get expensive on a modest budget.
A dreamy piece, an absolute favorite in the set! A happy find, exactly what i was looking for. No problems. Great strike, luster and color. Nice amount of red for an RB.Priced right too! Thanks to Frank of Currency and Coins of Wayne PA. Nice that the obverse has more red as the coin is wall-mounted with this side showing!
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!
truly, a perfect type piece. besides the great strike and original surfaces, it was in the grade/price range I needed
perfect match to my 3c nickel and liberty head. soft cartwheel luster with a satin finish!! what a perfect set when looking at them together.
soft, cartwheel luster, just the slightest of toning and at a grade which matches my "cents" example
steel-blue, light bronze-gold toning!! what a wonderfully original piece! Tyhe toning is subtle and bold at the same time while not robbing the luster on the obverse devices
pretty good match with the half dollar, a fair amount of luster(both sides) not visible in the pic
I love the no stars! Liberty here is like a portrait floating on a device-free background. the original surfaces are key here. a special coin, bought raw several years ago and now in a PCGS picture-frame, I mean, holder!
beautiful luster, great surfaces. a wholesome original miniature!
"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.
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!
perfect type coin! these arrows are not easy to find in this grade for some reason-nice gold-gray.
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.
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.
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!
