half cent, cent, dime, quarter and half dollar.

 

Some are destined for upgrades but some are definite keepers.

I certainly can't argue with that! thumbsup2.gifthumbsup2.gif Even though you are a little biased. 893scratchchin-thumb.gif Wonder why? grin.gif But, the exception is the dime! It is scores better than the picture shows: completely original and problem free! The half cent is also a keeper. The others.......... gossip.gif

It all depends upon your budget. The quarter is the weakest coin of the group followed by the dime because it's been cleaned. The cent is a little porous but OK, but then again I'm very "talented" when comes to buying copper. The half cent is a nice coin and not the most common 1804 variety. (Plain 4, stemless is by a mile) It has probably been cleaned at some point so the slabbers won't like it unless they are in certain mood. Still to copper people it is certainly OK. And the half dollar is just plain pleasant.

 

Sadly the dime and the quarter might be the hardest to upgrade.
