Coin purchase, coin picture, fun coin story, pocket change find, metal detecting find, numismatic book you read et cetera!

Here is my latest coin photo, I just imaged it last night! The coin is a little hazy on the obverse, but not too bad.

I thought we needed a good old fashioned coin post.

Bought this at the DLRC auction last night.

Here's my latest purchase:

For those keeping track of my collection, this was one of the two remaining commems that I needed. Honestly, I had given up hope of completing this set once ANACS switched to the new slabs. I have already necessarily capped the collection at 2005 (although I continue to buy modcomms, I don't slab 'em).

So now all I need is a 1996-W $5 Olympic Cauldron. Woe to any underbidders when that sucker ever appears.

Just bought from Teletrade.

etexmike · November 28, 2006 3:26AM

This is the latest coin that I picked up for my Morgan set. Just starting the set so it will be years in the making.

The only image I have is the one from Don until I can get a new pic of it.

Only my second purchase this year.

AU58WALKERS · November 28, 2006 3:38AM

This thread is so much better than all of the OF crap on this forum right now.

ziggy29 · November 28, 2006 3:41AM

$20 Lib for the type set.

stev32k · November 28, 2006 3:42AM

Picked this one up last weekend. It's in a PCGS MS65 PL holder

Coxe · November 28, 2006 3:44AM

My latest are all online cherrypicks that might or might not pan out when I get them in hand:

1902-P VAM-4 PCGS 65 $1
1883-P VAM-10 NGC 65 $1
1890-O VAM-10A NGC 63 $1 (this one is 100% certain)
1882-O VAM-4 ANACS 63 UDM $1

I cherrypicked this ragged clipped Seated Dime for less than $15 on the Bay right before the twins were born. I haven't had much time to bid since then.

I picked this up recently. It's a very interesting read. Was published in 1885.

Coxe · November 28, 2006 4:03AM

Oh, forgot completely about this book I got. Published in 1890 (and in excellent condition -- doesn't appear ever used) it is loaded with information I doubt is found very many other places if anywhere. Really neat stuff.

I hope that this little lady (born in Denver in 1918) is in the arms of my mail carrier by the end of the week. Image courtesy of DLRC.

What is something like that truly worth?

mgoodm3 · November 28, 2006 4:06AM

Recent image. Fairly new coin.

I notice the title of that book includes the words "American Coinage -- Ancient and Modern". I wonder what someone from 1890 would consider to be Modern Crap™

Courtesy of my local dealer! AU 50, an original!

CharlotteDude · November 28, 2006 4:42AM

This would be my latest, although I've an 1850-C $5 coming in on approval, and an 1806/5 DBH that should arrive any day now. This was picked up at the most recent Baltimore show... gotta luv that peripheral toning!

LeeG · November 28, 2006 5:14AM

TT last night:

Mesquite · November 28, 2006 7:07AM

I posted this on the darkside last night - I'm not entirely certain that these are welcome on the U.S. coin forum (do tell me if they are not). Latest purchase PCGS encapsulated, received on Nov. 21. I must confess that I am an incurable toned lover. U.S. or otherwise!

1911 ANACS MS-63 Barber Half Dollar

And would they look at a coin from the 1880s and say it was dipped crap because no coin minted then should look blast white?

Bought mere minutes ago, from a forum member, via eBay:

Right before I pulled the trigger on this one for my daughter's 1901 Victorian type set:

USAROK · November 28, 2006 1:23PM

I bought this in the recently concluded Legend Auction #5. The image is Legend's and the coin will find a home in my Dansco 7070 album.

Prethen · November 28, 2006 1:33PM

Here's a very difficult (albeit not near impossible like 1883-1885) coin to find in business strike for this series. I just bought it from JJ Teaparty.

Type2 · November 28, 2006 2:23PM

Took all he had 5.00ea
