    Nice cent. Like how the break is like a target all the way around the coin.

    It will CAC ... that's how beautiful it is :)

    BOLD strike; great surfaces. Love this 1820. Nice work.

    Very nice! Is that for a type set, or are you collecting Large Cents, now?

    Wonderful! Aren’t you getting too old to be adding to your stash?

    A nice looking example. The color seems well matched on both obverse and reverse.

    Great coin, think I feel that way every time you post a new pickup, you have good taste

  • BryceMBryceM Posts: 11,845 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I love these Randall hoard coins, especially the 1820 with the circumferential die break. I picked up a similar coin a couple of years ago. The luster and preservation is really special for 200 year-old copper.

    Talk about dark chocolate brown. Great strikes. I wonder what the coin looks like that was struck when the die finally failed. Peace Roy

    Outstanding and congrats to you.

    I remember the first MS brown Large Cent I ever saw in person. I was hypnotized.

    I would call this an attractive smoky brown. Was this coin in CA recently?

    I understand the red grape harvest there will be ruined since the resultant wine will be smoked!

    Nice. I've benefited from Randall's foresight myself.

    That was suggested. It's not yet certain if damage was done.

    "The overall impact of possible smoke taint on the bottom-line wines should be minimal, according to Jon Moramarco, the Napa-based editor of and partner in data research firm of Gomberg & Fredrikson. Although he admits that potential damage will need to be examined on a case-by-case basis for individual wineries."

    The coin is slabbed as a 64.
    I have tried to discern why it wasn't 65 but ....really...can't. :|
