    Welcome! image

    You paid a strong price for that 1904. Let us know if it was worth it.

    hi newsman,

    "You paid a strong price for that 1904. Let us know if it was worth it."

    you think so?

    since i started collecting US-philippine coins especially the half centvo, like you, 1903 half centavo in red BU is the most common to be seen in any auctions including eBay while the 1904 half centavo Red BU, from my experience, only comes once in a blue moon.... So for me it's worth the price for the long wait. I'm very happy with my purchases.

    i'm planning to send it to TPG sooner for the grade.

    Hi, Jepoy --

    I don't keep up with U.S.-Philippine coin prices as much as others do, so I would have thought you could get a nice coin like that for less money. Still, if you think you paid a fair price, then you certainly got a great coin! image

    I'd be curious to see if PCGS would slab it at a gem grade.
