Czar: the way to talk a guy down is like this.... "I like the coin, it's nice, color is ok, might be AT but I like it. If you ever decide to sell let me know, I might take it off your hands.... " lol

I have a certain affinity for half dimes and yours is absolutely gorgeous! I'm green with envy. Congratulations on your new addition.

 

My first Half Dime!

Guru, that's really nice for a 63. I realize the hits are there on the jaw but the fields are exceptionally clean with the reverse looking gem.

It was one of those had to have, Ol' Fatty gold embossed, a CC, nice satiny look and in my comfort range. Would love to find an 82 and 84 in the same holder, same look and grade. A short set, really short, of the most common CC's. It's nice for the grade and not going anywhere :)

Yeah, I remember seeing that on eBay. How does it compare in hand to the photo?

Love it in hand. Color really pops. I bought it from Crazy for Color.

My most recent pickup. Thanks Bob for your help on this. This has been in the works for a couple of weeks but I didn't want to post about it until the coin was in hand. I still haven't been able to get my own pictures of this, I believe the pictures I'm posting came from Bob who represents this coin extremely well! I will not be able to do better but I want to at least try! Anyhow please enjoy. It will be a while before I add another to this new branch of my collection but rest assured, there will be more.

NICE! My new goal is to get a full set of Matte Proof Lincolns. I've got the "easy" ones, but the toughies are just that -- tough to find.

 

Thanks for posting.

I'm starting to think that, due to the scarcity of wheat cents in prooflike condition (by which I mean, there are exactly Zero graded), I might pick up a MPL in its place.

Sam, I didn't take that photo. That is one of Phil's TrueViews. I just put the two of you together. That is really a great looking MPL. WL is a wonderful guy to deal with.

 

Congratulations for getting back in the MPL game. (thumbs u

I bought these coins from a online coin store that claims that the coins they are selling are Gem 3 for $44.99 as a wholesale price. Then I received this coin, and can not tell if the coin is Gem and also is this a Micro s or a regular s? Can people please give me their opinion on the grade and also if this is a micro s or a regular s?
