A somewhat harder coin to find with a full horn, especially in the VF grade.
Members I have done business with: Silverman68, jfoot13, GAB, ricman, Smittys, scrapman1077, RyGuy, Connecticoin, Meltdown, VikingDude, Peaceman, Patches and more.
This is already a unique coin but this particular example holds an even more unique position than most based on it's grade, PCGS has graded 81 of these and this example is one of only 3 graded below AU53 and is the sole example in VF30, every other one has a higher grade, up to MS67RB, so it has a PCGS pop of 1!
These restrikes rarely saw any circulation, they were snapped up by collectors pretty quick, and most surviving pieces are MS, that's what I like so much about this one, is that it actually saw some commerce, this coin is just chock full of history!!

I know all too well! Its taken me quite a while to build up to buying one of these and I was thinking id have to just bite the bullet and go for an MS63 restrike @$1,500 or so online but I am much happier with this circulated one and the price was a little more acceptable at just a hair over $950... Since I sold my wreath cent a bit ago this is now the single most expensive coin in my collection 😬
My lil pickup for my everyman 19th century type set hardly compares... but I did manage to get it for under list lol
Hey nothing to be sneezed at there! Thats a nice one in 58, my no cents 1883 is VG at best

I looked for a long time for one in this grade; not easy to find (easy in many higher grades, and easy in most lower grades; tough in 25-30). Also not easy to pay for in any grade! It showed up during my routine internet sweep of dealers I like, on Monday, and I snapped it up. I'm pleased!

More then a hole filler less then perfect, but deserving a higher grade then f12 by my eye
but then a higher grade would have cost me twice as much lol...

nobody said coin collecting was inexpensive
Go big or go home I guess!!
Are those for a type set? If so you're setting the bar pretty high, that's gonna be a whale of a set!

a VERY exciting addition for the $20 Large cent set.....
1813!!!!!!! Sorry sellers pic's are a bit crappy but I'm 99% convinced it's a 13 and for 20 bucks well worth the risk lol

Sweet! It's been a little bit since you added one to the set hasn't it? They're so much harder to find at that price point now than they were even 2-4 years ago...

Oh quite a few nice ones still out there to be had for cheap, my biggest problem is, I've filled all the commons and it's hard to find some dates for under 50.. that 13 being a good example lists for 70 bucks in p1/ag2 was shocked to catch that one
still filling in dates, got an 1810 this weekend as well, but I don't post a lot of the lowballs here but you can see most of them in the gallery link in my sig... (needs to be updated again missing 5-6 at least) I'll throw in the 1810 as well
I'm finding myself drawn to these circulated Buffalo nickels lately. Quite fun. Anyone else a fan of these in a crusty VF/XF range? Got these three home today.

Got this in the mail yesterday.
I have been meaning to upgrade my current 1937-D MS-64 to a 66+, but this came up and I had to have it.
Here is my Washington Quarter Variety Registry Set

Have always wanted the O/S on 1921 Peace Dollar and added the 1805 to go with the Half Eagle I posted.
Now I will watch for the 1805 O/S on Bust dollar.
