Years ago I had two that I bought out of a bowl full of Wheat cents that were at a coin shop and priced at 85 cents a roll.
Mine were decent (later graded by ANACS F and VF), but not as nice as that one.

Thanks Dan! And you didn't even have to cherry pick for yours. Nice!
Second finest I have noted for all 1877-S FS-802 Trade dollars and the finest and only UNC for the specific die pair (C-17 in my catalogue). It is PCGS MS64. The finer one is a C-16.1 (different obverse die) and is graded PCGS MS65 CAC (sold in 2019, Heritage auction 1299, lot 3755). There are 3 different obverses paired with the cherrypicker reverse die. The finest of the third pairing (C-18.1) is a PCGS MS62 CAC, which I discovered and sold recently.
June has been a good month for my $2.50 CAC set - The 1855-C gets me within 2 coins of completing my Charlotte $2.50's. 1871 new addition replaces an AU 50 coin.

That will be quite an accomplishment.

This one may be under graded but with the OGH and CAC it will probably stay as is. Very little wear, strong strike and good detail. There's a lot more copper color that my lousy smart phone camera can't pick up.
Nearly finished my set of early dollar varieties. I saved the easier ones (like this one) until the end, as they are always available. This is the 1802/1 BB-232 B-4.
@Coinscratch said: @Bob13 That Box of 20 ish is pretty amazing stuff! Slightly dumbfounded...
Thanks! - I hadn't reviewed in a while and looks like some photos aren't there. Also, got some new ones and some have moved on to better homes. Need to update....
Just added this 1917D type 1 SLQ, which also completes a 20th century type set. For some reason I didn't have any type 1s yet in my in-progress SLQ set.
Filling in my last common 1798 variety. BB-105 is arguably the 2nd most common die pair of the date. So I didn't want to waste time on it and would only buy on a reasonable opportunity or if some specifically interesting piece came up. Just grabbed a decently price VF20. Nothing terribly special. But now only have four ultrararities left of that date to get.

Here's my latest. From the Stacks Syd Martin auction. Always wanted to get a half cent to go with my cent! I think they make a pretty good pair!
My current "Box of 20"
@Bob13 That Box of 20 ish is pretty amazing stuff! Slightly dumbfounded...
Nothing that will break the bank but non the less a very well paired Cent and Half Cent Evans restrike

This is an upgrade for my Morgan dollar collection. I'm pleased with it as an MS66.

I like coins from 1983 in all shapes, sizes and errors
Two new 1957 proof dimes that are very frosty.
Tonedeaf is a nickname given to me in reference to my guitar playing ability.
