Some via the mail, and some local.

Canada 50 Cents, 1901. Moderately tough date. The first "A" in "CANADA" is a bit munged, but otherwise it's not a bad example, IMO. Local purchase

United States 50 Cents, 1949. Yeah, I know, icky lightside, but I picked it up because I liked the toning. Local purchase.

British North Borneo 1/2 Cent, 1891 H. Amazing what different lighting and photography can do. Coloring not as vivid as auction pics, but I like it.

Lastly, a pair from the Guthman:

Germany 1/2 Mark, 1905 A. PCGS PR64 CAMEO. The pictures don't capture it, but the dark areas amongst the leaves on both sides is reddish-brown toning.

Saxony 3 Marks, 1913 E. PCGS PR64 DEEP CAMEO. MEOWZILLA! I've been looking for a nice clean example of this one for a while. Amazing cameo contrast!

    Nice pick ups. I really like the '49 Frankie - looks like a Full Bell Lines strike in 64/65.

    And the 3 mark DCAM is outta sight!

    A very nice group. It is nice to see what that N. Borneo really looked like.

    Nice '01 Canadian 50c. As you say, not the most common coin in the series.

    Nice coins... I agree that perhaps the 1901 half is underrated and tougher than most think

    the 1949 half looks as if it is from a mint set and a FBL designation seems appropriate.

    and the two German coins just look undergraded

    Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.

    Great photography (and coins) as usual!
