My Favorite Purchase of 2010
STONE
Posts: 15,275 ✭
Inspired by Speety's thread!
Picked this up several months ago but kept it a secret until now...and I'm only showing about 5% of the coin!
I've picked up a lot of great Bust Silver this year, but this is something particularly special and holds a nice spot in my collection
I'm hoping 2011 is just as Numismaticallu great as 2010 was.

Could be a Bust Dime, or it could be a Rare Die Marriage Bust Half-Dime - several for this date!

It's finally 2011, I figure I can show 11% now
Maybe in 2012 I'll reveal 12%

Interesting guess given just the date and bottom portion of the obverse showing
Who knows, there could be a BIG hole at 12 o'clock, a scratch across the bust, or maybe it was cut in half and only the bottom portion suvives
Or maybe it's a nice coin

of what you're holding back from the collecting community - also
there seems to be a lack of Bust Dime collectors - otherwise sirens
would be going off right about now !!
Happy New Year Stone - see you later this week !! Your Grandfather
told me he and you were sharing a room at FUN. Just make sure you
make him take his Metamusil - you know how cranky he can get if he's
not Regular.

Looking for Top Pop Mercury Dime Varieties & High Grade Mercury Dime Toners.
It was an 1829 Curl Base 2 Dime with a reverse brockage of the obverse design, struck on a $2-1/2 gold planchet.
From another post.
Saw STONE's wonderful new dime. Very cool.
