That’s not old. I was in HS. It is old? Oh I’m really old. Ya, I got it. My dang cat nearly spit his milk out hearing me post this. He’s turning 20 this year. That’s old🙀😉
Nice FS-802 DDR. The DDR is not so clear from the pic, but that is the intermediate die pairing of that reverse. There were three obverse dies used. This is the second one, and the most often seen.
Scored this for $30. These have been going up like crazy the past few years & I have no idea why. They're not rare.

Working on an 1853 Mint Set and just added this...
The 1853-O No Arrows Half will obviously never happen for me and a few others like the 1853 No Arrows Quarter is gonna be questionable unless I can find one in a low grade. I have not been able to add this to my Registry yet as it is stuck in someone else's and I have not gotten it released to me by PCGS yet but here is the rest of the in-progress set as it stands.
@bramn8r I would leave it in that small ANACS slab. They haven't been made in many years and they are popular with many coin collectors.

Thank you- it came from a CA dealer who said he had a roll of them around 1971-72 and this one just came back to him from a previous client from back then
Finally received the ASE Proof S mint I bought when the US Mint had them available again for a limited time on 12/28 (all the crap/smudges are on the holder, not the coin)

ANACS 1971-S PF67 $1 TDO and DDR -------------I'm no Ike expert, this wasn't an expensive mint error. Is it worth a crossover? Just received.
Hmmm... I think I might know where you purchased that coin.
Nowhere near as nice as the ones posted above but still an upgrade for me.

I nice raw one I got. It is an 1876-S Trade dollar with an RPD/76 (different from the cherrypicker obverse, FS-301) and a radial break along the O of DOLLAR. Nice original color too.
@Downtown1974 said: @sedulous beautiful type set! Looks great in that old blue Capital holder!
I like the notes on the lining of the box too. Very cool.
Here is another newp. This is an 8-piece set... out of the same collection, same background applies... I agree, it is all pretty cool stuff. Thanks everyone for the kudos!
A Barber Quartet is made up of Nickels, Dimes, Quarters, and Halves.

I usually don’t like small coins but this one caught my eye at FUN- nice strike and outstanding luster and color

1892 Visit of the Buffalonians - Silver
composition: silver
mintage: 4
minter: US Mint

Very nice buffalo design struck by the US Mint. Only 4 were struck in silver and only 1 exists in the combined census at NGC and PCGS.
from 1915...
...to 1911

Thank you- it came from a CA dealer who said he had a roll of them around 1971-72 and this one just came back to him from a previous client from back then
This PCGS 1964 50C, MS Kennedy SAMPLE is a PCGS ERROR! It's a 1964-D. Curious if anyone is collecting these, it's my first sample purchase.
Finally received the ASE Proof S mint I bought when the US Mint had them available again for a limited time on 12/28 (all the crap/smudges are on the holder, not the coin)

@CoinHunter4 - that's why I posted it, I can't see the doubling, the TDO and DDR, or which PCGS variety it translates to.
I nice raw one I got. It is an 1876-S Trade dollar with an RPD/76 (different from the cherrypicker obverse, FS-301) and a radial break along the O of DOLLAR. Nice original color too.

Those long die scratches are insane. Wow.
That’s because the dies were defaced before the forum member bought all of them.
And there is no reeding but says, struck,in 2017
