Easy-coin--much easier to care for and store and just forget about for a while.
It's very important to check for that when making a five-figure purchase.
There is no "1806" Dollar.
IT is a nice coin.

Where's the other half of that dollar?
But yeah, I see what you mean. Ay, Chihuahua, that's a monster!

I was able to pull it up on the verification site.

It is easy enough to do if you forget about when the early dollars were minted. The early half dimes, dimes, half dollars (the 1796-7 pieces had "1/2" on the reverse) and dollars had no markings in their obverse or reverse as to their denomination. The half dollars and dollars were marked on the edge. So if you ignore the issue of size, they sort of looked the same.

New house for $125K? Must be a rough neighborhood.

Beautiful half. There's a True View of it but the colors look over saturated. Julian's pix are likely closer to reality.

That's a gorgeous piece, Bill... thanks for sharing! Regardless of the rarity, I love the eye appeal. What a piece of art!
