Thanks for the kind words on my lowly circ example. Seems that there are a lot of not so eye appealing Circulated Twenty-Centers IMO, but I liked the idea of being able to add this Type to my collection at a very reasonable price.
I looked for a US 20c for awhile, but it was expensive with reasonably full LIBERTY. And largely similar to other Seated Liberty coins and the Trade Dollar.
A person in this thread suggested to me he thought this is only AU but I think they are smoking crack. They might be someone that doesn't own one and understand what wear looks like...and wants something for free? There is no wear on this coin! Weak obverse luster, sure, but no wear on the coin.

I have an example of all of the regular issue double dimes except for the 1876-CC and the 1875-P in Mint State. I have been looking for an original surface, Mint State 64 or 65, 1875-P for more than a year. It is very hard to find.

In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible. I am also collecting at least one coin for each Roman emperor from Julius Caesar to ... ?
I have probably a handful. Been looking for the 1876 for quite some time. Don't see too many offered. Also, I see various dates out there that IMO are nasty looking.
Please... Save The Stories, Just Answer My Questions, And Tell Me How Much!!!!!
I do not have one.... a neglected part of my collection. Strangely enough, I have been looking for one - just started looking a couple months ago. Cheers, RickO
1 au-unc 1875-S, owned it for 35+ years and just made aware it has been cleaned by TPG ( AU Details-Cleaned, Very light cleaning with light hairlines) One of a number of coins I plan on selling

The 1875-S is BY FAR the easiest one to find followed by, oddly enough, the 1875-CC. It's all in the mintages.
Given you love for white coins, this 1875-S would probably be right up your alley. It is graded MS-64.
I rarely pay extra for toning, but this 1876 is really outstanding. It is graded MS-65.

I used to but then I liquidated. I intend to get into the series again after I get done with half dimes. Or I might take a break from the half dimes and do the twentys.
