Broadstruck, get your mind out of the gutter; we are talking coins here.

Recently acquired from GEN...

It does not get much dirtier than that (at least in my world).

Nice dirty $2.50's RYK.

1861-S is a tough coin to find.

Dirty gold is great. Long live dirty gold.

Wow! Those are so neat. My first impression is that they do not belong in holders. Coins so circulated they should be in your hand.

Steve27 · February 15, 2013 7:38PM

Wow is right, such nice even wear and no scratches or dings.

Nice job!

What a dirty couple! They should clean their act up! not really.

It's good to see you back in the saddle again. For a minute there I thought we were going to lose you to moderns.....

I like them all. Even the moderns from 1900-1908.

Edit: I did retrieve this one on Thursday, and it is fabulous:

Congratulations, RYK...

These pieces are beautiful because of, not in spite of, their crustiness. Rare too!

Congrats on the newps!

Well, for those of you dirty gold-haters, I also recently purchased this "modern" from Mark Feld:

Mark said to me: "I know it will be in stinkin, grimy, dirty company : ) "

I took that as a supreme compliment.

BustCuds · February 16, 2013 4:10AM

ranshdow · February 16, 2013 4:29AM

Both of those QEs would fit in great with my date run. Nice acquisitions.

LochNESS · February 16, 2013 4:35AM

Yeah, right ... "modern"

There sure is a helluva lotta dirt on that 1850!
