Pix aren't showing for me, but there's been a lot of that on the boards this morning, and Photobucket is also down for maintenance, if you use that. I hope you do well with "our" little type set. You certainly put the icing on the cake I started, with the additions you made to it. It was a fun pursuit, but I'm lovin' that Liberian I got from you in our swap, so it's all good!
Bump. For some nice "CircCam" material and a nice guy. TBE got the larger portion of this set from me in a swap earlier this year, but the coins he added to complete it (dollar and 20c piece) are every bit as nice as the ones I picked, in my humble opinion. The NGC crackout he mentioned was the Seated dollar. I bought the Trade dollar and miss it a little bit. It has perfect "CircCam" contrast in the toning, if you're into that sort of thing. I certainly am.
In fact, should this set ever get broken up, I would buy that Trade dollar again.
But I think as a set, this is an appealing offer. If you're starting a nice circ Dansco 7070 or similar 19th century type set, this would be a neat way for you to fill several holes at once with nicely matched coins.
PS-
@thebigeng- but why did you call it an " eBay " type set? Seems Seated type set would've been a better description?
Eh, whatever.
If these do end up on eBay in a true auction, I will certainly be a bidder, and cover the lower end for you at the very least.
Your right! I changed it! Thanks

I do have to practice my cataloging skills, for the reason you're aware of.
He put "CircCam" in the title instead of "Seated", but that works just as well or better. It would get MY attention, anyway! LOL
PS- I'll put my money where my mouth is. If some discerning collector of nice circulated Seated material doesn't come along and snap this up, @thebigeng - and you somehow end up "stuck" with it (which I find difficult to imagine), I have a possible return swap proposition for you. I'd happily take these back, with your additions. We'd just have to hash out the details since it would have to be barter, me being a perennially cash-broke peasant and all.
But let's leave that on the back burner for now. I would think somebody might want these, first.
Oh- one last thing- TBE didn't do himself any favors with these photos. They are adequate, but not sensational. Look in the reflections- see him there, with his iPhone? You can even see the Apple logo! So these are cellphone shots. Decent cellphone shots, to be sure, but trust me- I can vouch thatat least five of these coins (the ones I bought and once had in hand) are quite handsome. And I'd wager the ones he bought are just as nice. And of course with the 1872 dollar, he added the toughest coin in the set.
