A Poor Man's Gallery

Aspie_Rocco

I perceverate with my coins often. It's soothing and fun, and so much better now that I'm into PCGS slabs (coins are safer)

i thought I would share the beginnings of my Dollar type set. And maybe other selections from my collection eventually.

SPECIAL THANKS to @GrandAm, Bobby B. of IslandBobs registry sets, and JT Stanton for helping me with these, and trading with me to help build this so far.

I got this with an Amazon gift card. I might have overpaid but all I want it coins lol. L&C coins sent this awesome toner in a blind purchase. I can't seem to capture blues and purples, as the reddish-amber-gold toning overwhelms the colors.

Looks as if you are doing well on your dollar set.... Nice looking coins... Cheers, RickO

Some of my first coin purchases as a collector were Eisenhower's. Mainly because they are generally very affordable in top condition.

Walkerfan

Those are some nice dollars!

you have a good "snowball" started...now just keep rolling it.

I like Ike...always have. A fun set to put together. I'm also kind of fond of the silver issues...

Here is my 1938 PR67 FS 401. It is the plate coin for this variety on CoinFacts. This was on my first group submitted raw to PCGS from my Dansco book. I had every proof in there for every year made, until I got them holdered. PCGS did Free trueview imaging for this, which was a nice bonus.

This lot is dedicated to @DIMEMAN !
He inspired me to appreciate dimes (dimes: the smaller yet older brother to nickels)
And he has some amazing color pieces. So here are my new coins

Mostly nice coins. '38 mint state nickel looks prooflike ?

Aspie_Rocco

All of the 1938 are Proof yes (except the 38 FS106 ddo posted on March 10 with no cert #).
I’m hooked on pr67s of this year. > @fiftysevener said:

Have you been introduced to keets or big doggie Aspie_Rocco?
I think both of them are big Jefferson Nickel fans.

Yes I have. I have a few coins from big doggie, and I got one 1938 pr67 from keets.

Nice to meet you also.

Thanks for the nice comments everyone. I love my Jefferson Nickels and I’m still slowly climbing in the registry sets.

Walkerfan

@Aspie_Rocco where ya been kiddo? Missed you around here. Welcome back!

Aspie_Rocco

New purchase just arrived. WOW. Wow!!!
This is my new favorite coin. Ever. The colors and clarity are almost overwhelming in beauty. Although I wish there were no spots on this (I really dislike spots), these make no difference to me. I put it in my registry as my regular 1938 Proof. It is a FS 401 re engraved serif Variety which is also my favorite 38 Proof Variety.
I will repost the PCGS image. Here are some pics in bad light and direct sun. It is wow. Thank you Oxbridge Coins in San Francisco!
