A new purchase I'd like to share.
I'm working on a $5.00 half eagle Indian date set. It's just a run of dates regardless of the mintmarks.
This 1914 was a tougher date to locate that was affordable and nice enough to fit into my set. I'm happy to say the search is over as I have finally found this one. I find the strike and luster to be attractive.
Thanks for looking and comments are always welcome,
Joe

Looks to be in a P holder, mind sharing the grade?Thank you all for the compliments on this piece. It took me a long time to locate one that I liked. The grade is PCGS 63. I think it’s a pretty coin for the grade so I purchased it.
Thanks again and happy hunting,

Nice coin, Joe! A couple of old Buffalo collectors like us have migrated to collecting gold.
Your photo skills work well with gold also. Please share as you build the set."Look up, old boy, and see what you get." -William Bonney.

Thank you to all for the kind responses.

Thats a nice looking '14. How many are left? 16-S and what else? I'm sure you can find a screaming deal on an 09-O!

The 16-s is the one I need most then my set will be as complete as can be. Of course I’ll still be looking at the others and possibly add to it. The 09-O is not on the list nor is the 29😳. Unless I hit the super lotto.

Fantastic coin!
If you don't mind me asking, what camera do you use? I find that my Canon Rebel XTi has some trouble focusing to the quality I desire with my macro lens, so I'm trying to find a replacement.

I need one for my type set (any date). Every time I replace it, somebody comes along and wants it more. That's a nice one. Thanks for sharing. Such a good hobby.

Thank you.
I use a SLR Nikon D750 with a Sigma macro lens. It take me close to where I want to go but I’m now thinking of an upgrade to a Nikon Z 9. Price is always objective.The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.1 -
It looks pretty cool, but I can't tell, is that real gold, it look's like it but just to make sure.
