Halves for the weekend?

Regardless of the date, post a favorite. This is a 70-70 half that has no doubt been at one time cleaned and has retoned over the years. Despite it’s mishandling, I like it for the detail that remains.

This is a favorite not because it is a particularly nice coin, but had to eat some crow on it. Had a fellow collector tell me back in the 80's why a lot of coins in cabinets, especially proofs toned like this. I poohed poohed it until I took this coin that had a very dark spot out of its mint cello and tried it. He was correct.

Here's something a little crappier, ummm, I mean, different.

Mercury10c · October 12, 2007 2:10AM

And one of my faves. Notice the color coordination between the coin and the label.

Mercury10c · October 12, 2007 2:13AM

Ok, I promise that this is my last one. Nobody's posted a Barber yet.

Have I mentioned lately how much I love eBay's Buy It Now feature?

The O-129 Discovery Coin that slipped right through my fingers (Cherrypicked right off my Holey Coin Vest!)

Can't win 'em all. Sometimes you're the cherrypicker, sometimes you're the cherrypick-ee.
