Picked this up from the boys at Coin Rarities Online last week. They are a real pleasure to deal with

I keep hearing good things about them. I'll have to keep my eye on thier site. Great coin (thumbs u

jpolz......so what is the grade.....we know it is in a NGC holder!!

 

Its in an NCS holder.

Its a dang beautiful coin. (thumbs u

 

What? Do you know why?

 

Yes it is in an NCS holder. VF Details. Scratched.

 

I liked the look of the coin initially and looked as closely as pics would allow and couldn't see any scratches that concerned me. Then I did that again 3 more times before deciding that whatever NCS saw either didn't bother me or was hidden by the photos and it was time to pull the pin and bid. I'm very happy with the price I paid, and seeing the coin in-hand it looks exactly like those pics.

 

I haven't put it under a UV light yet. When I do that, maybe I'll see something else. Maybe I won't do that -- you know how it is, once you know a problem is there your eyes get drawn to it? At least, not for a while. For now I'm going to just enjoy it.

 

Thanks for the replies!

I'd crack and send it back in. It really does look lovely from the pics.

Steve I like that coin. It has a nice original tone to it.

Dang! Tough act to follow! I don't think we've done seated dollars for a while.

Wow Bill. Very cool!

Thanks guys. I had been searching for an 1805 DBH that had the right look for about two years now.

Wow! That 1802 DBH is a BIG coin! Congratulations on that one (thumbs u

I found a new coin store outside of the city that seems to be more my style. It's more laid back with less hustle and bustle. They also have a taste for original coins. I hate when I walk into a coin store and 90% of the coins are either cleaned or dipped!
