Here is an MS63PL Columbian half I bought awhile ago. Amazing color that I couldn't capture very well.
For every coin I win , I will match the same value into my kids college tuition.
Edited below with new picture.
Came home 10 mins ago from a long day of work just to find my youngest played with my collection before nap again.
OK, here are some photos I took from last month's visit to iconic Carson City including a visit to the original Carson City Mint building now part of the Nevada State Museum. Depicted is the coin/medallion that was stamped for me on the same original Press #1 that minted the first Carson City coins back in 1870.
For more photos from my visit to include a personal account related to me of that Carson City location being haunted to this day, as well of the Nevada Ghost town (which contains an assay office) within the original Carson City Mint building, go to the link below:

Oh, and this photo was also captured there in Carson City
It was lefties day at the mint....
Why do we collect? Like many posters here, I have some spectacular rare coins that I am fortunate to own. But what about inexpensive coins? They tell a story too, and don't bust the bank. They are just as good for what the essence of collection is about, to learn and have fun.
Best, SH
Wow, thanks!
How nice of you. @Type2

I like having a 1793 coin, being that it is the first year for US coinage (yeah, I have colonial as well, but they are by the colony....1793 is just THE year to have, imo....and the 1/2c is something that your "average" person would likely be using back then, if anything, as value was so much different).
It's PCGS as well...I never sent it to CAC.
I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

Getting a face to face meeting and conversation with DC and buying products directly from the artist. Getting to see the first two gold octagons was a real treat. Show highlight.

I do not use facebook.....so I guess that means I do not LIKE anyone...so I,m out
This is all I have thats interesting of my pictures.
Here is one of my favorite Washington Quarters. I love it for the incredible die crack with displaced field break on the obverse near the date. Just look at how displaced the field is out at the rim.
Nobody likes me, so why bother. Heh.
Seriously, though, it's generous of you to post this. If I should win anything, I'd like you to donate it however you see fit to any organization supporting young numismatics.
Now, a coin; may luck be with you:

Am I the only one who has problems with all the photos not loading? Is it because the files are huge or is it just my internet sucks?
