    Very nice. That mushy '13 sings - typical strike, it seems.

    Without pulling out my book, I'm guessing the 1813 is either O-108 or O-109. I'm leaning more towards 109 because the top pair of leaves looks rather weak, although it is clearly not yet an O-109b "Single Leaf" die state.

    Regardless of the variety, it's an excellent example of a ULDS Bustie. I'm guessing low MS condition. The toning is really great, too. Not to mention the other two coins are also quite nice.

    Thanks for sharing!

    The coin look nice enough. I'd have to know the prices, to determine whether I Love them, Like them, Meh them, or Hate them. image

    I like them, and don't need to know the prices. They didn't cost me anything. image Tough to pick a favorite. I guess it would be the 1813 for me.

    The 1813 is my favorite.



    Looks like an honest MS example.

    What a terrible burden you carry! How 'bout I assist, you identify and fund the purchase, and I'll take receipt and store? Deal! image



    Nice as usual!

    1813 O.109 PCGS MS62 (ex-Chuck Link)

    1818 O.112 PCGS AU50 (I grade it 53)

    Nice looking group Lance. Thanks for the awesome pics. What would the process involve in getting the 1806 in a correctly attributed slab?

    Here's what I've been told repeatedly in the past. (Note: A forum member recently spoke of a postage-paid envelope from PCGS instead of registered mail. Maybe something new.)

    Lance.

    Love them all, but the 1806 is special. What a gorgeous coin. Over 200 years old. Wow.
