WTB attractive slabbed Type coins

Looking for attractive/solid ~EF+ examples of most US types, 19th and some early 20th century. Slabbed preferred.
My budget suggests ~$100-$300 range per type. If you can give me a good price on a beautiful coin, lemme know!

Thanks!

    It may help if you include an example of what is attractive to you with respect to these coins. I prefer coins in this range to be dirty, gunky, have retained crud on them and to be somewhere between brown to grey to cinnamon as far as color. Many (perhaps most) other folks like secondary toning that results in vivid blues, greens or red/orange colors. Quite a few others like nearly white pieces that have been scrupulously dipped or picked clean.

    What do you prefer?

    Good question! No gunky crud, I tend to like lighter toning rather than very dark. Brighter pieces in PCGS/ANACS are good (for the more modern stuff).

    I just bought this example... Light enough that I can see and appreciate the detail.

    Thanks for the clarifying question. I'm trying to figure out exactly what I like. :smile:

    TTT -
    and payday is Monday, and I'll probably TTT this again, as I'll have perhaps a few hundred budgeted to spend.
    Anybody have a solid, preferably slabbed, common-date and nice looking "good for the grade" seated or trade dollar or bust half..?
