Broc Mitchell Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 I hope that it is not a problem that I take the liberty to post a coin with a slight disregard to the original rules, if its a problem I will delete the post =) Since it seems this thread has been slowly stuck on Jeffersons for the last 10 days I thought I'd shift down 100 years and post an 1838 cent: Maybe this will help the ball roll a little. -Broc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bsshog40 Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 Nice Calif. frac there Bob. I have read up on these and still don't know which ones are counterfeit and which ones aren't. There are so many varieties of these it's pethetic!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robec1347 Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 You're right Bobby. It would be a pretty tough series for someone to try to collect. I've got 4 that I've had for about fifteen years and don't know jack about them. Or at least very little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyMan Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 WOW!!! There are a whole bunch of very cool coins here. Nice looking Jeffersons Irvin, Rey and Tom. Fun Large cents Broc, MBA, Winston and Larry. Nice CBH TJ. Excellent year set there Richard!!! Is that a 100 year before your birthyear set or something? Whatever, it's COOL! Bob, those are some fun CA. fractionals. Given the era and the location I would assume that the D stands for Drunk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Count_Erfit Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 Any cal gold with a BEAR on it is a worthless token. Every coin shop sees these by the trillions. (almost) A real one (note that Deriberpe put "DERI" on this one) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robec1347 Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 Here are my other two. Note - No bears. Even though graded by PCGS, the reverse looks like someone scrubbed the devil out of it. Not very photogenic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robec1347 Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 Dang Rey, I think you were playing possum with us at first. You’ve suddenly got quite a collection I noticed that a while back. Rey not only has a great assortment of rare and common varieties, but also an assortment that is in super condition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbrown4 Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 Wintston and Bob, Thank you for the kind words, not trying to play possum, it is just taking awhile to go through the collection thouroughly and correctly. Still learning, and most definitely enjoying this fantastic hobby. Also enjoy and am very happy to be able to share the results of my Father's efforts over the years with all on here.
