Second in the series,
I really like the Bicentennial issues, I was a budding numismatic in 75/76. I searched my change, (even to this day) for the quarters, finding a half dollar at that time for me was almost imposible...

AU 58 & Anacs....dreck!
Collector, occasional seller
Nice, thanks for sharing !!!
@specialist This one's for you.
Is that blue peripheral toning on the obverse? I bet it really pops in hand. I like it.
It's a sliver of color; the luster is nice too. I like it too!
Very nice

I think some people don’t know what dreck is...
Nice to see some great coins snuck in here though...
Now we’re talking!
Real dreck!
If we were all the same, the world would be an incredibly boring place.
Tommy
it's only a 45
But does it have a sticker?
Very nice!
I think they are using Specialist's definition (basically almost everything non PCGS/CAC).
That 50 used to be mine too. I owned it when it was raw. Side by side, I judged it to be inferior to mine (luster, wear), so sold it to a fellow collector. Not finest though, since there is a 58 in Tennessee
no sticker. I know CAC evaluators are quite knowledgeable with all types of coins, but would they know that every single 1837 LM-2 and (especially) LM-3 comes struck so poorly that they tend to look like VFs, even when possessing the luster of an AU? I was surprised PCGS graded it 45. They almost got it right
@Barndog The sticker comment was made tongue in cheek.
Got this one for less than face value
Trying again
Something special about the holder?

There are good coins and great coins... some coins are damaged, some are pristine. Dreck is a term popularized by elitists, usually spoken in dealer circles. I have many coins that would be labeled as such... and I like them. Cheers, RickO
'83 NC... ugh
Some of you guys got some nice "Dreck" by the way did Laura get a copyright on that word?
Before I post a pic,

Things you see over and over and over again that don't belong in a dealers case every week wishing and hoping that they sell. Like a V nickel with a plus + attached to it that doesn't get a "gold bean" or a quarter that got swallowed and five nickels came out or old Ike dollars with no silver content..........

If it gets me excited, it's porn. If not, it's dreck
edited to add: Actually, it's just, as George Carlin would say. "stuff". Though there is some pretty "stuff" around
Could be the joining of 2 words: Dread and Icky=DRE,CK
I'm not sure if I still have it or sold it....not worth looking for

This probably would qualify: hundreds available at any time, including in rolls, not even gem 65; I still like it
