  Pathetic
  
  If you've got US coins, post them.
  
  If not, go play pre-federal Coin Uno with the guy who bought that stupid Quint.

  Boiler78,
  
  Those don't suck that much
  
  Certainly "some small beginning". I'm gratified that you are finally on the right track

  This 1883 No Cents V Nickel would be my earliest UNC.

  1851 large cent in MS64 brown. No pics, but I've owned it at least 15 years. It's possible that I have a seated coin or two in AU58 that are older.

  Lovely 1812.
  
  Unlike quite a few of this date with pretty nice skin and, sadly, those quite distracting adjustment marks on the face. .

  An 1866 nickel would be my oldest currently.
