Auction win NEWP:

Nice for the grade. The braided hair cents are fairly available, even in the early years of the series like this one. I believe the Large Date version (such as this one) is slightly more available than the Small Date one.

Auction NEWP - arrived today:

Much nicer in hand, although the pics are fine. Tough, T-2 G$1. Nice detail with no issues.

@Copperindian nice coin indeed, love those southern branch mint type 2 gold dollars…. Very nice look

Copperindian · April 15, 2026 1:28PM

Thanks @GuzziSport: plus, it’s much more affordable at this level!

Just my approach and my opinion, but I have no desire to strive for high or highest grade coins - I love original and interesting coins, and don’t care at all that they’ve circulated, matter of fact it adds to the allure. This coin is a perfect example of the type of coin that I seek.

JWP · April 15, 2026 6:33PM

I really like these ANAC photo certfied coins
This 1884 Morgan is my 10th.
Sorry, I got the reverse side of the certificate upside down. Me bad.

JWP · April 15, 2026 6:38PM

These copper coins by D.
CARR are nice.

JWP · April 15, 2026 6:43PM

Another Henning nickel
I plan to send it to ICG in the next couple of weeks.

normmalin · April 15, 2026 6:57PM

A couple of civil war era store cards

Shurke · April 17, 2026 11:29AM

This one just arrived in the mail today. It's even prettier in hand than in the pics.

Just fantastic! Love the hard surfaces, even color, and strike. Well done, Ken!

Grabbed this earlier today from Angel Dee’s at the Vienna, VA show.

Would @ricko would award this one a blast white sticker?
It is a very nice looking coin with a minute toning on the reads.
I belive he would have.

I think him and I would agree on the word tarnish. I got this one in last Sunday's auction also. Thanks for looking.

Got this one a couple weeks ago from GC:

PhilArnold · April 20, 2026 6:08PM

Some Centennial Toners

lkenefic · April 20, 2026 6:41PM

First purchase since January...

Copperindian · April 20, 2026 6:52PM

Nice NEWP deal:

All kinds of “nice” for this one: strike, eye appeal, detail & price. Even @ 67 these are available - PCGS pop is 123/30.

johnny9434 · April 20, 2026 11:31PM

Grabbed this one for a small coin folder, it fit

redraider · April 21, 2026 5:31AM

Picked this up a few weeks back. MS64RB in an older PCGS holder.
It has since Eagle Eye stickered and it is now with CAC going for the double sticker.

Also with CAC is this very nice 1884 S-1, PCGS MS65RB. Top population for this variety, there is one other MS65RB, but the obverse is pretty spotted.

Copperindian · April 21, 2026 7:21AM

@redraider: great pickups Jonathan!
Ken

jfriedm56 · April 21, 2026 8:24AM

@redraider, absolutely love the 1884, Jonathan. My favorite grade of Indian head cents.
Zack.

redraider · April 21, 2026 9:33AM

Thanks guys! The 1884 looks better than most MS65RBs out there. If not for a mark on the D in UNITED, this coin would be a solid 66. The reverse is absolutely mark free! Should be a shoe-in for the CAC sticker and if Im lucky, maybe I'll get my first gold bean!

mpbuck82 · April 21, 2026 10:15AM

Great Collections pick up. I’m into papal coins.

GuzziSport · April 22, 2026 10:32AM

Due to some (very positive) life circumstances, I’ve slowed my collecting activity somewhat, but I saw this as a nice pickup and couldn’t help myself…. I don’t tend to buy non-CAC’d federal coins but this has the look I love, the right era, a nice OGH, and was reasonably priced.

Goob · April 22, 2026 12:35PM

new WQ for my set!

johnny9434 · April 23, 2026 4:03AM

johnny9434 · April 24, 2026 2:53AM

I like these too. I have 4 different albums and they are rather easy and fast to complete. I got them to give to my grandkids when they get a little older.

Thats cool 😎 👍
Ill know where this one is going when it gets there 🤔

124Spider · April 24, 2026 10:38AM

It took a while to find one that I like enough to pay as much as it took to get it; thanks, GC!
I kind of like what appears to be a prominent die crack through the date.

WAYNEAS · April 24, 2026 11:18AM

This coin completes the 2025 reverse proof set.
A real beauty in hand.
