    Kind of laughed a bit thinking on seeing those California slugs. I guess they do things a lot bigger than Texas out there!

    Love that Milled British (1830-1960)
    Well, just Love coins, period.

    Thank you for sharing. These types of posts are one of the reasons I keep checking these boards. That ‘65 $20 looks outrageous. Barbaric display method included.

    Last three. I was surprised to see the PCGS graded piece. Funny how they covered the grade but not the serial no.

    An you tell who signed. It? The description just said ‘signed’

    Saw that collection a couple of summers ago with mouth agape. Looked at it for as long as the wife would allow.

    Would love to have one of those octagon 50 d pieces, beautiful coins all around thank you for sharing!

    Collect raw morgans, walkers, mercs, SLQ, barber q. Looking at getting into earlier date coins pre 1900s.

    I cringed every time I visited the display there.

    Who approved the display method with the metal prongs holders shown in the first few photos?

    Those metal prongs are even worse than the white plastic ones. They have been used for a very long time and their continued use does not reflect well on the curators of the collection.

    All glory is fleeting.
