This little gem I got off a Heritage auction for $1,500.00 one night when no one was paying attention....I thought the photo looked decent. When I got it in hand, I realized it was even better than the TV, super lustrous, and mark free. Why it didn't have CAC, I could care less...I would buy MS65's like this all day long if I could.

This arrived over the weekend, 1873 Shield Nickel with a monster DDO, old FS-008.7. Unfortunately it's very porous so it's hard to photograph, though it was likely barely circulated before it went into the ground.
i think the place i see it best is in the shield lines extended south. looks like 4 or 5 lines. a great spread.
ok just noticed, i can see it in that cross of M or whatever it is called going south as well too, obviously.
A very rare 1867 with Rays Shield Nickel FS-301 RPD. Unattributed NGC AU55. Worth about $3K-$3.5K. Last pic is courtesy of Howard Spindel at shieldnickels.net

PCGS graded world banknote won at auction for $49 In 67 PPQ estimate $425 value at very least. Top pop note. Great addition to my retail banknote inventory.
I just picked this one up over the weekend. This is now my best cherrypick of the year so far. It's a 1936 Buffalo Nickel graded MS-64 in an old ANACS holder. It has nice pastel toning on the obverse and is also an unattributed DDO. I brought it home for $48.00.

hmm it is either the missing ray or something like that or you are thinking gold sticker? looks pretty clean.

and you kept the cert. nice.
are there really 26 in higher grades attributed. surely it ain't so? a couple/few of those gotta be resubs?

I cherried this proof 1956 Type 1 half dollar, with two sided frosted devices, last Friday at a local show. One of my better picks so far this year.
