Great BST purchases completed with commoncents123, p8nt, blu62vette and Stuart. Great coin swaps completed with rah1959, eyoung429 and Zug. Top-notch consignment experience with Russ.
Unfortunately, the eagle posted doesn't work as a half eagle.
i want to see the fiver.
thanks ryk. it appears the owner's of this coin have never felt
the need to share it online, only numismatic material.

Ahh! Not something I collect, I thought that was the half-eagle and the $20 was an eagle; glad someone posted the right coin.

It doesn't look as though Heritage has ever sold one.

Coins and books together - who'd a thunk it.
Personally, I learn a great deal more by reading books and catalogues, than looking at coins or listening to bourse floor promotional pitches.
Hey, it's as least as close as the other pics in this thread

Gosh...are you telling me that there are some things about coins that you cannot learn about on the internet?
This may be the first time the image has appeared online!
I had fc this close (I I) from actually buying a coin book.
Hopefully this will show fc the value of a library. You never know when you might need some information on something, and you might need it fast. If you have a good reference library, you can look down the shelf, pick it up, and have the info at your fingertips in less time than it takes to post a request online!
my god, ryk, that is exactly my thoughts also.
how did that coin survive in that shape? simply amazing!

Compare the detail on the obverse (especially the hair) to the 1895 $5 in the other thread.
Thanks, fc. More informative than some recent forum resurrections
