Copper For The Weekend

LeeG · July 31, 2009 6:40AM

Been a slow buying period for me the past few months. Just accepted a career change into the Military Loan Processing business as an Assistant Manager.

If I can help anyone in this area, let me know! More coins in the near future!! Might be heading to Philly in Sept also.

Lustre to die for:

Ditto. I bought this at last year's Santa Clara show from a very reputable dealer. It is simply stunning! I looked it over carefully, shared it with some senior forum members and a few copper dealer-friends, and everyone gave me a thumbs up. But almost without exception each said "PCGS is very nervous about color. It might BB."

I figure I'll send it in again. At some point it will slab. I've only failed once with such persistence.

That 1916 Lincoln is beautiful. I love that type of RB toning much more than "full red" examples. Similarly,I bought this from the Naftzger sale earlier this year:

Beautiful Large Cent rays. My Lincoln registry set is slowly being made up of this type of coin thru 34. You can still buy them raw at a decent
price. I demand a well struck cent as well as this coloration. Here is another raw purchase that did well at PCGS. Shag

Thanks Lance! I just got that one, it's the nicest I've ever seen. Gonna be holding that one for a while

Here's another one I got at the Baltimore show from Angel Dee's. For some reason I passed on it at the show and during my long drive home I decided that I would like to have this coin. So I emailed Andy about the coin and he told me he was holding it for another customer who had seen it and would buy it if it was an RPM. A couple days went by during which Andy had a chance to look at the coin and let his other customer know that it was not a variety or an rpm, so it became available to me and I snapped it right up. Very pretty in hand and a pop top too.

Back to the front page this evening with a 1909-s/s Rpm 1.

Nice '55 Mike.
I know the obverse looks like a schit-house in distress, but the reverse...
...well it's got the look of Love.
