I'm starting to like getting late die state coins.

 

Yesterday, I picked up another Liberty Seated half dime from Heritage's sale of the Bently collection in San Francisco. It is an 1868-S, and seems to be in about the latest die state described by Blythe. I'm not sure why, but coins with lots of clash marks, die cracks, and other signs of die age have been drawing my interest lately. In this case, both dies were in pretty bad shape.

 

Happy Collecting to All!

That is one good looking coin and amazing die crack. I cannot blame you for liking it as I have a few coins within my collection that were bought for the grade but it was the die crack that made me pull the trigger. Nice find
