This is the large cent I'm selling because I just replaced it with a RB:
1851 PCGS MS64BN 1C
I suck at taking pictures, but if you need me to snap some sort of pic to prove I have the coin, I can certainly do so. I can also provide a reference from the board. I'd say the biggest thing the coin has going for it is the way the stars are all struck up. I'm not going to pretend to know anything about die state, etc., but I HATE HATE HATE mushy stars. The denticles and rims are all pretty nice, too. I thought from the Heritage pics it looked more RB, but it is not. Has decent luster though. $375 delivered with insurance. I may accept paypal for an extra $10 if I recognize your name, or you have a good board reference.
I also have an 1853 half cent, PCGS MS63BN. Also being sold due to RB replacement. Decent strike/die state (a couple stars are a little weak), ok luster. The rims and denticles are pretty good. Has some slightly uneven coloration. I think bid is around $255, so I'll let it go at that delivered with insurance. I can attempt a picture if you are interested, I didn't want to waste the time unless someone is actually interested.
Normally I would consign these to be sold on eBay, but I thought I'd give this a shot first.

This is all contingent upon seeing a picture of the 1/2 cent. I am not looking to cherrypick, but want to make sure I like the coin. I am hoping to do this deal for both.

<< <i>I would be interested in both coins. How about $625 delivered. I have done a lot of deals with members here if you need a reference. Mitch just sent me a check for $6500 for coins I shipped to him before he paid me. I took his personal check, no problems.

I can vouch for Rick. He and I have done deals here for years. Certainly one of the Good Guys.
