SkyMan Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 Cool coins! While I like the Charter Oak on the CT. commem, I quite like the eagle also, a nice art deco kind of look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike, I love that large cent! -Amanda Thought you might comment on the clashing -- as soon as I saw it, it reminded me of your quirky buffalo collection. Well, I didn't notice the clashing at first, I don't really see many large cents. But now that I see it, it's just that much more awesome! The Quirky Buffaloes Collection does have several clashed examples. Die clashes rock! -Amanda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MunkyMan95 Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 No, seriously, it has what looks like islamic writing on both sides. I'm soaking it in olive oil, and its working fast. Early yesterday, I had no idea the reverse had anything on it, but it looks much like the obverse. Oh by the way, I have no idea which is actually the reverse and which is actually the obverse, I'm just guessing. PS: Bob, I can't see ya photos.

leeg Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 That's a "Sweet" Large Cent Mike! These two arrived via Heritage. Took forever to ship these. Had to call Heritage to see what was up. They had put a "Do Not Ship" flag on my account, without my knowledge, to try and combine lot's to save on shipping cost's. Told CS to remove the flag. I like the thought process by Heritage but, let me know first, before arbitrarily putting a "Don't Ship" flag on my account. Communication is key! Other folks may want to call Heritage and inquire about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AC-migration Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 Here is an 1860-O double eagle I just acquired last week. It is graded MS60PL so it actually looks pretty good for the grade. It is the only example currently graded mint state by either NGC or PCGS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EZ_E Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 I just picked this type coin up from prooflike in the Marketplace. Pretty decent strike for a high relief Peace dollar. It still doesn't rival Brucewar's, though. Yet, I am happy with this sweet purchase! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruceswar Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 Nice looking coin Victor. Yours looks pretty clean hit wise. Nice score. In case anybody was wondering what coin victor was referencing. Here it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
