I'm a poor grad school student but I managed to find this little guy after a LOT of searching. These things are tough to find.

One of the advantages of building a type set is you only need ONE really cool coin per slot! I have been known to buy a few "dupes" just because i couldn't help myself, when the coin is just too pretty to pass on.

 

BTW, i just added another link to a knockout Proof 67 RB Indian Head Cent that is also in the same class,.......you might want to grab a look before you get too depressed! (kidding,......hang in there and one will come along)

 

 

Wow...why does everyone have a beautiful CBH but me? :cry:

 

If anyone has any for sale let me know!!! :banana:

Thanks,......but sharing is half the fun of owning such things.

 

..........doesn't it just drive you crazy when some of the top sets in the registry contain absolutely NO pictures! I know it does me.

 

It's bad enough in today's reality we have to lock them up,........put pictures don't cost much and are easier to get at than the coins themselves.

 

It seems for now the best pics of my coins have come from Anaconda's website when they listed them and i downloaded them, they just make the coins look GREAT!

 

Someday i'll get around to re-doing some of my other coins where the pics don't do the coin justice. I almost wet my pants when this PCGS 1829 MS65 Bust Dime came in the mail, but the pics don't come close to conveying what the coin looks like in hand. Super strike, luster, ....and COLOR abound on this coin,.......but need larger and clearer pics to show it properly.

 

Here is how it was pictured on ebay:

..................in hand this coin is an eye appeal national treasure. Someday i will present it better.

 

Beautiful CBH, Beautiful seated Dollar, and BTW, Beautiful IHC!! (thumbs u

Hey Joe have you tried photobucket ? It's free and there are a few of us that use it. I like it. You upload your pics to it, them just copy and paste into your post.
