1837 H10C Seated, Small Date VF25 PCGS #4312

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!

1853-O H10C Arrows AU50 PCGS #4357

beautiful luster, great surfaces. a wholesome original miniature!

1860 H10C XF45 PCGS #4377

very original envelope-burn toning!

1884 10C AU55 PCGS #4692

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.

1875-S 20C XF40 PCGS #5298

an original, untampered-with album-toned piece, not so easy to find. soft liberty, but nice xf details otherwise

1861 25C XF40 PCGS #5454

like the capped bust dime the sight of the coin immediately grabbed me. literally, a no-brainer purchase!

1855 25C Arrows XF45 PCGS #5435

perfect type coin! these arrows are not easy to find in this grade for some reason-nice gold-gray.

1875 25C AU50 PCGS #5498

a great match with my seated half-dime and dime.

1861 50C XF45 PCGS #6302

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!

1854-O 50C Arrows VF35 PCGS #6280

absolutely love the mottled toning on this one!

1847 $1 VF35 PCGS #6934

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.

1877 T$1 XF45 PCGS #7044

a very difficult but satisfying purchase. On an RCNH wishlist for grade, common date and originality, the last being particularly hard to find.
