A good dead? You mean deed?

Doggedly collecting coins of the Central American Republic.

The controversy of an exposed Liberty adds to the historical nature of this cherish relic of a day gone by. This example, well worn, but well-loved, will be a integral part of any budget minded collector's treasue chest!"
Ya know, I didn't even use the word "original" or "monster".
Dripping with pavement gray toning, Liberty is highlighted by evening hues of brackish splendor. The strike does not intrude upon the eyes appreciation--for there isn't one to speak of. Fields of worn silver bring to mind the back of an elegant spoon, only without the shininess that so often detracts and confuses. This coin would fit in any collection. Or for that matter would still fit in modern day vending machines. A rumored pocket piece of the late great Al Jolson, it was said he hurled it into an audience member's left eye, after a drunken and lewd request for Swanny River. Don't miss out on this rare beauty. Cuz we're sure sick of looking at it.
"Nice original coin, worn with the use of history for nearly a century. An excellent coin for your album, or for your type set."
Its Suwanee River.
SOLD!!!!...hehe Andy,Your a nature born coin dealer I think.

After the events of 1945, the coin was mishandled (unfortunately, more than once), but had moments of brilliance. The coin made its film debut in Sunset Blvd as the legendary Silent Screen Star Norma Desmond won the coin playing cards. This coin is better known for its role in Doctor Strange Love as it was liberated from a vending machine by a US Army man at the direction of Peter Sellers. This rarity again slipped back into circulation only to be discovered again.
Is $1,995 too much for a coin held by a four term President and the Queen of the Silver Screen? You decide...

Beautiful 1917D quarter- perfect for the type collector! We can honestly say that this is the first time a quarter of this date, in this grade, has been offered at auction! This coin was once part of the great coin collection of Louis Elaisberg, before he used it to buy dinner one evening. Type One SLQs are always VERY popular due to the bare breast on Liberty (Woo-hoo!) and this coin is in nearly PERFECT condition with NO major flaws to speak of! Beautiful silvery gray original surfaces. If it’s a lovely 1917D Standing quarter you want, bid aggressively on this one! Once it is gone it will be a LONG time before you see one quite like it at auction again! We should see some VERY spirited bidding on this quarter- you can forget about the Greysheet on this one!

Too FIng funny!!!
P.S. Shipping and handling is 15.00, no returns, certified funds, don't bid if you don't intend to follow through...I've been burned by several jerks lately!
