Finally Purchased....

I finally got myself a 1931s in vf grade. The only problem with that coin is htere are a couple of dings in it but it was the only one i found with a visible date and little to know problems. I also got 1892 Columbian Exposition commemorative coin the same day, I will post a few pictures when i can.

    What denomination? It could be a cent, 5c, 10c or $20 Saint.

    This is fun. Guess the denomination!

    I'll guess it's a Lincoln. The '31-S is very tough.

    Where'd you get it? That mintmark looks weird...

    Ok, well since they saw it in hand I'm sure it's fine. Just odd lighting I guess.

    Nice cent... always gives a good feeling to 'fill a hole' or gap in one's collection. Cheers, RickO
