Sorry, I posted this in the token query. Here is the next to last Draped Bust Half Cent I needed for my Meghrig Album, an 1806 Large 6 C-4. Also, for those of you who like half cents, here is my Meghrig Album collection. I lack the 1802 also, but do not count it as too expensive and probably will not own one.  So, I stuck in a COPY to fill the hole. Not saying it's right, just that I did.

Here are my Denver and San Francisco coins: 

My Denver coin is in an old, blue, no-prong PCGS holder and is a 64.  I grabbed it off eBay, back in 2011, because I LOVED the luster and strike.

My 16-S is a PCGS 64 with a CAC sticker.  They are the rarest of the three and I can't believe how much that particular grade/CAC sticker combo has appreciated.  They have essentially DOUBLED in price, since I've purchased mine.  

Sadly, I have no suitable image of my Philly coin.  I snagged that off of the eBay, too, about 11 or 12 years ago.  Likewise it's a PCGS 64.  I built most of my early Walker set using that grade.  I felt it was optimal, as you could cherry-pick gems without paying the HUGE premiums.  MS 65 is where the Early Walkers really JUMP in price.  I grabbed it for $500!  They now retail for $1700, in 64, and gems are $3250, today.  Wish you could see it.  It has beautiful luster and some lovely rim toning.  Strike is good, too.  I'll have to work on getting a good image for it.  

You Know....People do a bunch of crying and complaining about eBay but it was instrumental for me in building my set.  I'll bet that almost half of my set came from there, either, directly or indirectly.  It's STILL very relevant to me, even today.  

 

 

Mr Garcia and WF those are some great Walkers

This PCGS 66+ is another standout from my collection. The strike is incredible for the date and the luster will knock your eyes out.

 

Gorgeous coin Joe
