Hard Times Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 I'm pretty sure the next coin after jpcienkus's post should be a Morgan or any coin dated 1882. Why is that? Seems to me that a coin with a date, type, or mintmark leaves open 3 possible directions (at least) to 'Follow the lead'. I chose the mintmark. Is there something wrong with that? Apparently the defined rules for this game are more restricted - silly me. Best, HT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robec1347 Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 This is from the first post with directions. They aren't my rules. For those that wish, this is how it works. To start it off, post a pic of any commemorative half or any coin dated 1936. Let's say next someone post an image of a 1936 Washington quarter. You would now need to post a pic of the same type coin (a Washington quarter) or anything dated 1936. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was thinking that mintmarks made it too easy. Your turn to buy the wine come January HT. It's going to be Fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyMan Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Much as I like Irvin's quarter eagle, it should either be Classic Head quarter eagle's or 1839. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elbesaar Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Looks like everything is ironed out and it's now Seated Dimes ( Type 1 ) 1839 - 1859 - or - any 1849 Dated Coin. All I have are With Legend Obverses - nothing earlier. All my coins from the 1840's are only dated 1847. There are not too many of those either, I'm sorry to say !! Watching closely to inundate you with more Barbers... Have not seen too many chances as of late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coindude Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Bob my first impression of that coin is that it's beautiful and is a proof. Please tell me if I'm wrong. Not about the beautiful part, that's undeniable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
