Interesting counter stamps given the date of 1867. The civil war had ended two years before. I noted three different counter stamps. 1 double star next to date 2 LR to the left of shield on reverse 3 reverse 4 between flag and star on obverse. the coin appears to be a late die state based on the weak denticles. As RWB stated it is still a collectible coin.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Conder101, wouldn’t the draped bust small/heraldic eagle be a die variety rather than a type?

The pictures are too fuzzy to see any hairlines as indicated on Zerbe Morgan dollars. The attached image from PCGS shows what hairlines they are describing for a 1921 Morgan Zerbe. The 1921 Zerbe Special Strike Morgan Dollars were struck on special polished dies but on normal circulation type planchets. Zerbe Special Strikes show many hairlines on the devices of the coins compared to circulation strike coins.

Ok dumb question: wasn’t the 1918 cent 95% copper? If so why would there be a lamination error?

It appears that my 1824 Capped Bust Half Dollar is a 1824 4 over 4 die variety Type 1 1824 Capped Bust Half Dollars : 4 Over 4 Lettered Edge Mintage: N/A Minted at: Philadelphia (No Mint Mark) Designer - Engraver: John Reich Metal Composition: 89% Silver - 11% Copper Diameter: 32.5 mm Mass / Weight: 13.48 grams Designer:John Reich, 13.5 gr 89.2% silver 10.8% copper Mintage 3,504,954 VF30 lists $204 value

No it is not worth grading! Grading would cost upward of $50. the cent you showed is only worth 1 cent

This cent has been hit near the 7 just post mint damage.

It appears to be in reasonably good condition and not cleaned. 1921 was the final year for the original Morgan dollar. Your example seems to be in the Fne range. Worth about $45 but not worth the grading expense

That roof is gonna leak! Neat finds Jp😎

I have to determine the die variety on the capped bust half.

Heck I’ll be lucky to obtain one flowing hair half dollar

Yes type set except the Kennedy which I have the full set

Thanks I failed to mention that I recently got it too.

Isn’t the 1824 a capped bust?

Well I have everything after 1824 so the others might end up being re-pops. have virtually every Kennedy PDS , a Franklin for every year MS63 FBL, A Walking Liberty and if you count it, an 1893 Colombian Expo half. So what is left besides the Flowing Hair half dollar?

Just got this 1824 Capped Bust half. It has good details and good edge detail but appears to have been polished. No problem I wanted the example and not to have it graded. also an 1856 Seated Liberty Half

They used a rubberized dot on these and they are about as flawless as you could get. Even full steps!

JPM, this is funny..the other day, you were telling us how you were having a tough time finding a mint state Jefferson nickel 2023 D. Well today, I received a solicitation from VFW, ant attached to the letter were 4 brand spanking new Jefferson 2023 D nickels! Not a mark on them! I can send you a couple if you like. Bill

Here’s a good example of letting others pay for the grading. 2012 S PF69 for $12.50 delivered

Fake crisp shield but you can’t read liberty

Here are a of better pictures of the DDO 1964-D

JPM , good point. But within the group it pretty much screams, don’t grade coins by a tpg unless they are $300. As you said, let others pay the exorbitant fees. so with so many people losing money on those exhorbitant fees, wouldn’t you think the amount of grading would somewhat diminish? NOT! But there are always plenty of slabs to buy. Few get the bargains that you get though!

Sandon I have not yet determined which variety it is and only comments from the seller only state accented hair so I tend to believe it’s not since the tpg did not identify it as such. Since I paid just $28 for it I think I did just fine.
