The President claims he didn't lie about taxes for those earning less then $250,000 a year with public mandated health insurance yet his own justice department has said they will use the right of the government to tax when the states appeals go to court.

    Actually, it's really a toss-up between this and my Roanoke. But I think this one edges it out. image

    This is in an NGC MS-66 holder and is every bit of a 66.

    The toning is particularly nice for a Norse.

    Here is one the Daughter gave me last year for Xmas. It is my favorite because of who gave it to me. The coin is nice to,
    Any inperfections seen are on the plastic.

  • Dug this out of the ground and my heart stopped until I rubbed off the dirt covering the heavy metal words. It is beside one of my Ikes for size perspective. So far it would be my favorite, then the next would be 64 proof quarter. Hope the pictures comes out ok.

  • This coin is pretty interesting as it has a cameo prooflike obverse with nicely mirrored fields and the reverse shows heavy die polishing lines (to try to remove die clash marks) including a die scratch thru ED of UNITED. And to top it off the dies are rotated 140° counter clockwise.

    Beautiful irridicent toning (only a hint comes through in the photograph) makes this 1819/8 Bust Half on of my favorite coins.

    But I have to include (for not better reason then good old wild west nostalgia) this 1875-CC Double Eagle.

    Sorry for the "failure to communicate". Is there a person who can help in the great NW? I'd love to include pix, but have no idea how to use my scanner, etc.
