I received coins back from our host yesterday and will spend time with them tonight, comparing them with others shown on Coinfacts and taking cell phone photos of them to post on the forums.

It's Saturday night and the old man is home on the 3-day weekend bored stiff. So, I figured I just post a coin to help me through the rest of the night.
Here's my 3 dollar piece that I like a lot. You can actually see the entire profile of the princess on the reverse from some hard clashing which I find interesting.


Here's my 1908-d half eagle I find attractive in it old green holder.



Thanks for looking,

What is that zoom tool?

Another new member of the group. One on the examples I am admiring and studying this morning. Her previous stop, for almost 11 years, was as the set piece for what is currently a complete DM set. The previous owner offered her to me when he upgraded to an MS62.
This morning's coffee? Italian roast, strong, with a splash of half and half. What else?!!

Still morning (barely) on the west coast. I just got a G-VG 1888-S to go with these quarters.

Had no time this morning to post but it was happening. I had some company for the opening. 😉🙀🦫

This is the ongoing project. It just takes me forever to get through a roll, but it’s fun starting the next phase of my Roosie album. 64-2012.

I keep looking back at this and then looking it up- this is the 3rd or 4th time I’ve gone back to your post- I don’t own any territorial gold but would love to see more of yours- you should post a thread with your collection, why you chose what you did, and some history!

Thinking about this awesome Football medal by Victor David Brenner over some fine coffee:



One of my favorite pieces. I just love the design. The little guys really pop under magnification. It's quite high relief. Try and count them all. It's more difficult than you thinkDead Cat Waltz Exonumia

Wiping the sleep away and injecting coffee to the metabolism ... and admiring something a little different that came in this week.
Well, sortof different, it's still a Bust Half!

Different being the grade??
Looks like a choice 30 or better!

Yeah, different being the grade (and maybe the look I usually go after).
I agree with your take on grade (looks 30 to me), but she's actually in a VF25 holder, so splitting hairs. I've always appreciated the two-tone cameo contrast that some of these old workhorses display, and figured I might add a few dates that look like this if I can find them.

I really cant agree with you here... I realize that silver is a nonferrous metal, but I swear you have a magnet that attracts these steel grey and blue busties with rock solid, lively surfaces...🤔

Here is my new addition.
AU53 CAC
It has its own post, but since it’s Saturday morning coffee with coins…
I am sitting at a Saturday morning farmers’ market listening to a guitar player/singer with my iced tea (it’s too hot to drink coffee outside in Alabama) and chocolate croissant.
