  • Been a long week, following Lee around to make sure he went to work. This was ICCS ms62 brown. Talk about your tough grading. Best luster I've seen on a brown cent, but you can't tell, of course.

    Its been a week for 1909 VDB DDO Type 2's!. All three off eBay, and each has a story. First coin was ID by the seller as a DDOT2 for $25, but improperly graded XF-AU. Second one was graded properly as MS 64 but ID as a "Filled B" variety,so the ID was half way wrong, but for $40, I am not complaining. Last coin is in a PCGS MS 66 Holder. I offered $370 to the seller which they accepted and cancelled the auction, but the seller was unaware that was a DDOType 2 - oh well, only 4 MS 66 DDOT2 graded by PCGS - soon there will be 5!

    I was born in Wisconsin, so when I saw this one on the B/S/T in 2006, I jumped on it!!!!!!! Tough to find in the original packaging. Thanks cameonut image for this info:

    Quote from Hibler & Kappen:
    Medal commemorates 100th anniversary as territory, not statehood, wisconsin having been admitted to Union May 29, 1848. Legislature created wisconsin Centennial Inc. 1933 with $500 appropriation, later increased. Celebration was state wide, highlight being presentation of pageant, "Centennial Cavalcade of wisconsin," in stadium of University of wisconsin, Madison, June 27-July 5, 1936; "witnessed by at least 75,000 spectators."

    This was official medal, sponsored and designed by Commission, 1500 pieces struck in Bronze, sold for $1.

    Obv. Capital building, clouds behind; at base on small ribbon 1936; smaller ediface to L; at base, on small ribbon 1836; avove all, around wisconsin Territorial Centennial; below all is prone animal (badger?) on dotted line.

    Rev. Eagle in upper center panel; to L 19/ June / 27, to r. 36/ July/ 5' above at border Madison' below panel Official/Wisconsin/Centennial/Celebration; stars all around at border.

    696. Bronze Size 24. Very scarce

    Man, that doubled 2-cent piece is AWESOME... even if it weren't doubled and was just a regular 1867 coin, it would be a superb piece!

    Hey, it's still the weekend.

    Though I know LeeG's seen it already, I might as well take this opportunity to show off my latest dig!

    Just a humble thing, but I'm psyched about it. More psyched than I could possibly get over any coin I'd bought.
