Sometimes you never know what you will find at your local coin shop. Wasn't ever thinking I would have one of these. Genuine but with env damage...Thought it had nice eye appeal
Another cool coin. Thanks for sharing.
This is a tougher date that took me time to find. Commonly seen with darker color.
Was posted on the BST by another member (MD) about a year ago but now it's mine..

This is a part of my "on again, off again" large cent date collection. I try to get hooked on doing a one a year date set, but my attention span does not seem to keep me at it.
The 1821 large cent is considered to be a semi-key date.
And here is an 1816 year set for the U.S. Mint. The only thing that is dated 1816 is the cent.

I did not know that about the US Mint in 1816, Thanks

Off topic, never seen this slab 'in the wild', are they still in business?

@Shamika .... that is a very nice 1915 Buff.... Cheers, RickO
Excellent coins from everyone.
I particularly like the large cents BillJones, outstanding.
I love the way the CBH tones.
Does token count?
Best, SH

I get first dib on Bill's coins should he decide to sell.
You don't know what I paid for this stuff. Yes they are nice, but they didn't come cheap, and there are a number of other hand picked pieces.
Bill,
Do you think that your beautiful 1816 Large Cent pictured in this tread originated from the famous Georgia "Randall Hoard"?

I am sure that the 1816 came from the Randall Hoard. The 1816 is not as common as the 1818 and the 1820, but it's in the mix.
No doubt every piece deserves the price you paid. In my mind, when great coins are available, those who hesitate will forever regret it.
Still in the old green PCI-45 holder that I bought from forum member Buffnut when ebay was new. Slabbed as a D/D. One of these days I'll get a better picture of the mm.

Our host has this coin right now for grading. I've been quietly putting together certain commemorative half dollars. I really like some of them, not all, but certain ones I find very attractive.
