My first CC Half Eagle

I have totally blown my budget this year. I recently purchased two CC Half Eagles from forum member. I saw them on his website and could not resist.

For a fairly common coin in AU it is not common to find them with so much luster and so few hits.

Here is the first of the two. I will show the second when I have time to edit the raw pics.

Please comment at will. image (I noticed what might be a small rim ding on the image, I have not double checked the coin to see if it is there or how bad it is.

    Nope as much as I love the $10 gold I am trying to focus on Half Eagles. The most important purchase for 2008 for me (If I can find them) will be the 1838 C and D Classic Head Half Eagles. These two alone will be about two years worth of budget. image

    I agree I am also hooked on AU gold.

    Nice!!! Exceptionally clean of marks especially for a CC mint coin. image

    I always love CC gold. The common dates especially are extremely popular.

    Believe it or not it cost about the same as you are charging for the 1986 Eagle on the BST. I keep having to ask myself is it worth keeping the newer flashy stuff or sell at today's bullion price for the older flashy stuff.image
