    One of my favorite sets, the only one I have left is the 1796...which will probably never happen, but here they are, all original (which is hard to find) and all PCGS (I will upgrade the 1806 eventually)

    Naw...it's probably more that, like me, most of us don't have the top dollar, knock-your-socks-off quality specimens like yours and the others that have already been posted, so we just sit back, watch, and drool a little.

    So, just to represent the more average collectors on here, I'll post one anyway:

    Stman,

    That looks like the Bust Quarter that Mark Feld had listed. You just beat me to the punch on that one.

    That's one of the nicest coins I've seen on these boards -

  • Billet7Billet7 Posts: 4,923 ✭✭✭
    The boiler coin is superb...that is, I believe the strongest strike that I have seen on a draped bust quarter. Usually one side is weaker in terms of strike, but this is better than one can expect...on both sides. It looks nice too. If I found a quarter like that, I would think it was a fake...no bust quarters look that nice. (I'm not saying yours is fake...what I really mean is it is fantastical, unreal, dreamlike...in short...perfect.)
  • JRoccoJRocco Posts: 14,277 ✭✭✭✭✭
    I agree that Boiler's quarter is off the charts, but look at those breast and tail feathers on QN's 1806 B-10.

    Holy canoli....
    Some coins are just plain "Interesting"

    Thanks JRocco!

    The fact is that along with the B-9, the 1806 B-10 almost always comes very well struck. That is why Boiler's coin looks so good...it is a B-10!

    Also his coin is an MS-64, where mine is only an AU-53.

    Boiler, your coin was sold several times in the last 5 years and is tied with two other coins as the finest known for the B-10 die marriage...

    Heritage - 8/15/2006 Lot 5164,

    B&M - 1/7/1993 Lot 428

    That's because grades are not important in appreciating the beauty of these small, round, historical time capsules...
