OK....Im done for now with this trio.
1863 w/L Indian Head Cents in Bronze, Copper-Nickel and Aluminum. All are very scarce, I think a total of 17 are known across all three metal types, with multiple locked off the market in museums.
As stated earlier, " I want to be you when I grow up". The "School Girl" design
would have been a much better choice than Morgan's frumpy janitorial
woman. Just outstanding!!
I wish I could match that sharp Helmeted Liberty Head of Barber ... I can only show off a similar Small Heraldic Eagle. Your high quality 1877's 50 cent patterns are a dream to me

This is the very rare J-211b. It’s tied for the finest known. I’m not inclined to try & cross it yet due to current “conditions”, even though I need this variety for my 12 piece 1858 short set. In the meantime, it’s a wholly original beauty I enjoy owning!
Ah yes - the "coins I shouldn't have sold" thread ....... there are many others!
