pretty bright sunlight. It has really unique die breaks running throughout the reverse lettering. The most pronounced is just near
the bottom connecting Half & Dol.

****11/13/11 - The photos are back and the prices are lower... still might have room in some of them so don't be shy in letting me know if you're interested in one or more of the items below. Thanks for looking!****
1942 Lincoln Cent PCGS PR64RD - $95 ***NOW $85***
Typically PR64RD examples of Lincoln Cent proofs come with moderate spotting and/or haziness. Although the holder is quite scuffed up, this example is probably the cleanest and spot-free PR64 that I remember seeing. The coin is also a very strong bright red example that has plenty of eye appeal. The pictures didn’t come out very good at all so you may have to take my word for it.
1960-D Lincoln Cent NGC MS66RD (Old NGC fatty) - $20 ***NOW $15***
Pretty cool bright-red Memorial Cent that almost looks proof-like, especially on the obverse. The fields show tons of die polish lines that I think make this coin really pop. The reverse is a tiny bit more mellow that the reverse.
1965 Lincoln Cent ANACS MS65RD (Old ANACS w/ XX0000 cert. no.) - $15 ****SOLD****
Nice gem red Memorial Cent. Definitely a business strike and not an SMS coin. The coin is in an earlier version of the small ANACS holder. The coin is full red, spot free and has decent luster. The luster is just starting to mellow on the reverse.
1954 Franklin Half Dollar PCGS PR67 OGH - $99 ***SOLD***
This holder is really scratched up! I should have spent a little more time with the PlastX before taking these pictures! Anyways, the coin itself is a nice proof with very clean deep mirrors. The coin doesn’t really have any cameo contrast to it, but it’s still a good looking earlier proof Franklin in the old holder. If you want, I can try to polish up the slab a bit and get some better photos.
1946-S Booker T. Washington Half Dollar PCI MS66 - $60 ***NOW $50***
Another BTW commemorative, and another one in MS66, but I don’t quite agree with the grade on this one. I would grade the obverse of this coin an MS64, maybe an MS65, there’s just too many hits in the fields and on the face to call it an MS66. But, I do think the reverse is a solid MS66 as it is much much cleaner. The coin is blast white and has booming luster. Not normally the type of coin I’d buy, but it was going way too cheap I thought in a local auction so I picked it up. Hopefully someone agrees that the coin is still a great value.
Lincoln Cent Wheat Reverse PCGS OGH Authentic Samples (multiple dates available) - $8 each ***NOW $7 each***
From what I could find out about these sample slabs, it appears they were produced to be included in a coin collecting kit in the mid-1990s and I believe one sample slab was to be included in each kit. I haven’t seen any examples of this kit before, so I’m not sure they were ever brought to market. Obviously, the slabs were made up by PCGS and they have made it to the market. I have seen 10 different dates of Lincoln Cents in these OGH PCGS Authentic Wheat Cent slabs, ranging from 1918 to 1929 (no 1921 or 1922). The cents in these slabs range from nice looking VG to F coins, to lightly cleaned examples. I have several of these available and I would be happy to offer discounts on orders of multiple examples since I’d be paying to ship only once. I have two groups like imaged below of five different dates (1920, 1924, 1925, 1926 and 1927) that I’d like to keep together and will sell those at $30 for the set of five coins.
2005-D Jefferson Bison Nickel PCGS Sample Slab - $15 ***NOW $12***
This is a neat sample slab. First, the coin itself is great and I really like the 2005 Bison design used on the nickel and the nickel has been slabbed bison side up. Second, instead of giving some generic certification number to the sample like is usually done, this slab has the PCGS phone number in the spot for the certification number.
Group Lot of Eight State Quarter Sample Slabs - $50 ***NOW $40***
For awhile now, I would buy state quarter sample slabs when I saw them at coin shows. Not sure exactly why, but I knew there were others who collected these. Anyways, here is a group lot of some of them I’ve accumulated and would make a nice addition to your sample slab collection. Several varieties of slabs from different grading companies are represented here. The sample slabs you will receive are:
1999-P Delaware State Quarter NGC Sample Slab x 2
2000-P New Hampshire State Quarter PCGS MS00 Sample Slab
2000-D Massachusetts State Quarter SEGS NG Sample Slab
2003-D Arkansas State Quarter NGC Sample Slab
2003-P Missouri State Quarter NGC Edge View Sample Slab x 2
2003-P Missouri State Quarter NGC Sample Slab
1964 Kennedy Half Dollar PCGS MS OGH Sample Slab - $29 ****SOLD****
A nice example of the old green holder sample slab with a mint state 90% silver Kennedy Half Dollar. I believe the half dollar has a MS63 obverse with great luster but several hits from other coins. The reverse is much cleaner and looks MS65.
1964 Kennedy Half Dollar NGC Sample Slab (2 available) - $25 each ***NOW $23 each***
Another Kennedy Half Dollar sample slab but this one is NGC. The half is a little more banged up in this one, but still looks mint state, probably an MS61 though as there are a few decent hits and some hairlines in the obverse fields. The reverse is much better looking.
1964-D Kennedy Half Dollar NGC Sample Slab (3 available) - $25 each ***NOW $23 each***
I have two of these available and they are the same as the above slab except these have the 90% silver Kennedy Half Dollars from the Denver Mint. Again, NGC didn’t use really nice halves in these samples. They appear mint state but these are probably MS60-MS62 at the best as they show several hits and some light spotting, particularly on the obverse.
1921 (actually 1921-S) Morgan Dollar PCGS Circulated OGH Sample Slab - $99 ****SOLD****
Recently, PCGS has been giving out Secure Plus holders with a 2010-D Lincoln Shield Cent as samples at their submission tables at major shows. Wouldn’t it be great if they gave out silver dollars instead? Well, apparently they did long ago. Morgan Dollars in the old green holder sample slabs aren’t too easy to find. They do pop up on eBay from time to time and usually sell for around $100 depending on the coin in the slab (almost always a 1921. This example is marked as a 1921 on the holder, but the coin is actually a 1921-S. Some on eBay market these 1921 samples with mintmarked dollars as “error” slabs, but I’m not sure that is the case. It seems that PCGS intentionally put 1921 on all of them, whether they were P, D or S coins (and I’ve seen all three in these slabs). I think this particular coin has AU details, but it has also been cleaned as can be seen with the hairlines in the obverse fields and across Liberty’s cheek. Even so, I have seen dollars that look far far worse in these “circulated” sample slabs.
Arizona Charlie’s $1 Chip ICG Sample Slab - $8 ***SOLD***
I hadn’t seen any sample slabs of casino chips before so I thought this would be a great addition for a sample slab collection. Also didn’t have any ICG sample slabs so that was two birds with one stone!
2008 Annual Uncirculated Dollar Coin Set (3 available) - $50 each ***NOW $48 each***
Similar to the 2007 set, the 2008 set has the five 2008 golden dollars (4 presidential, 1 Sacagawea) and also has the 2008-W Burnished Silver Eagle. I know many of these sets were bought up by those hunting for the 2008-W/reverse of 2007 coins. Since these sets were released late in the year, I do not believe any of them yielded any such error coins.
1976 American Revolution Bicentennial Silver Medal NGC PF 68 Ultra Cameo - $50 ***NOW $45***
Designed by Frank Gasparro, this medal (along with others in various sizes of gold and bronze) were made by the U.S. Mint in connection with the 1776-1976 Bicentennial celebration. This silver medal is 1.5” in diameter and my Internet research told me that 211,722 in this size were minted. I’ve read conflicting information on the purity and the amount of silver in this medal, but it seems the majority of the sources I’ve seen say it is made up of 90% silver and has 1 troy ounce of silver in it. Anyways, it’s a neat medal and has a pretty nice design of the Statue of Liberty.
Alaska Mint One Ounce Silver Prooflike Sea Otter & Pup Medallion plus Alaskan Trade Tokens - $60 ***NOW $50***
A really neat looking one ounce silver Sea Otter & Pup medal made by the Alaska Mint. This example is the “proof-like” version of the medal and is listed for $65 plus shipping on the Alaska Mint website. The silver medal comes with a small blue velvet flip for the medal which has an outline of Alaska on the outside. However, I put the medal in a Saflip to better protect it. Also included are a couple of Alaska trade tokens. The first from 1959 was issued in connection with Alaska becoming the 49th state in 1959. The second from 1962 appears to be a souvenir token for tourists.
Liberty Sub-Set of Four Different First Spouse Bronze Medals - $50 ***NOW $40***
These are the Bronze versions of the First Spouse coins. They are 1 5/16” in diameter, nearly the size of the silver dollar and are in new 2x2 holders. The Mint issues these in annual sets and individually. The current medals are issued at $7.95 each (earlier medals were $5.50 each). Here you can get the four that everyone wants, the Liberty designs issued for the Presidents who served without a First Lady during their administration. These are in very nice condition and I would say they are MS67RD (only the Van Buren’s Liberty coin has a few light waterspots in the obverse field). The medals you will receive are:
2007 Jefferson’s Liberty
2008 Jackson’s Liberty
2008 Van Buren’s Liberty
2010 Buchanan’s Liberty
Eleven Different First Spouse Bronze Medals - $50 ***NOW $40***
Another grouping of First Spouse bronze medals which are raw in flips. Again, these medals would likely grade at least MS66RD, with many of them better. A couple show small marks from handling and a few have some very light spotting, not the dark black copper spots you see on old cents, but the light white waterspots that you see on modern silver eagles. Anyways, here’s your chance to get most of the medals issued through 2010 for less than $5 each! The medals you will receive are:
2007 Abigail Adams
2008 Elizabeth Monroe
2008 Louisa Adams
2009 Anna Harrison
2009 Julia Tyler
2009 Sarah Polk
2009 Margaret Taylor
2010 Abigail Fillmore
2010 Jane Pierce
2010 Buchanan’s Liberty
2010 Mary Todd Lincoln

PayPal is fine, but if you use it, PLEASE add your forum name to the payment so I'll know who you are and what you are buying!
Full return privilege if you are not 100% satisfied. My return privilege is very flexible, mostly because I've almost never needed one. The main thing I ask is that you notify me as soon as you can if there is a problem or concern of any kind, and I'll do my best to make it good.
Contact Info: Should I ever disappear from the forums and the computer for a week or more, as I sometimes do, and you need to reach me, feel free to call (912) 261-8408 and ask for Rob. Emailing me in the event of a forum absence won't help much- usually when I'm away, I'm away from the computer entirely.
I love to swap! Got an interesting trade offer? Don't be shy- step right up! As you can see here, I dabble in a little bit of everything.
Bullion Info: I've added a bullion chart from Kitco.com towards the bottom of this thread, should you need it for reference.

Roman/Palmyrene Empire: bronze antoninianus of VABALATHUS (266-272 AD), struck ca. 271 AD, desert patina
VABALATHUS was king of the breakaway Palmyrene empire under his mother, Zenobia, ca. 266-272 AD. This was initially with the acquiescence of the Roman emperor Aurelian (who was busy fighting on other fronts), but Aurelian later conquered Palmyra in 273. This bronze antoninianus was struck at Antioch around 271 AD and shows dual portraits of Aurelian and Vabalathus, perhaps in expression of the Palmyrene hope that Aurelian would allow them to coexist. Obverse- VABALATHVS V CRIMDR, Laureate and draped bust right. Reverse- IMP C AVRELIANVS AVG, Radiate and draped bust right. (Which side is considered the obverse and which is the reverse is up for debate on a two-headed coin, but more folks probably use this type to represent Vabalathus in collections.) RIC-381. 20.62 mm, 3.3 g. Ex-Ancient Imports, 05/2007. Nice desert patina on this one. My cost was $69, but make an offer.
Roman Empire: bronze antoninianus of CARUS (282-283 AD), posthumous issue struck ca. 283 AD
CARUS, Augustus 282-283 AD. Posthumous AE antoninianus, Siscia mint, ca. 283 AD. Obverse- DIVO CARO PARTHICO, radiate head right. Reverse- CONSECRATIO AVG, flaming altar, A to right, SMSXXI in exergue. RIC-111 var., Cohen-23, Venera-4341. 21 mm, 3 g. Ex-Ancient Imports, 05/2007, Harmer Rooke 1988. Asking $45, but that's flexible. I think my cost was about $55, originally.
Ireland: Associated Irish Mine Co. "Cronebane Halfpenny" Conder token, 1789, VF+ (borderline XF)
Nice medium brown surfaces and no problems. The images are scans, not photos. The obverse features a bishop in a mitered hat- hey, you gotta love some of the cool designs on these old tokens, right? I'm too lazy to look up the Dalton & Hamer variety (there are a LOT of varieties of this issue), but hey... y'know what? Buy it, and I'll throw in a CD copy of the D&H book I bought here, so you can attribute it yourself. Apparently the person I bought the CD from didn't know it wasn't legal for resale, but I won't be reselling the (bootleg?) CD. I'll be giving it to you as a bonus. (I paid 20 bucks for it.) Who wants a nifty Irish token and a free CD of the classic reference on 18th Century British provincial tokens? $46.
USA: Coronet (or "Modified Matron Head") large cent, 1838
A nice brown coin with decent surfaces and no major problems or distractions. I'd would say it's right on the cusp between F15 and VF20 in terms of technical grade. I don't know the Newcomb variety. $44.
USA: Flying Eagle cent, 1857, G+
I'd call this one a G6, personally. The eagle's a tiny bit scuffy but not bad. The coin doesn't have any major problems, really. $28.
Buy all three Indian cents below and you may deduct 10% from the total.
USA: copper-nickel Indian Head cent, 1860 (Round Bust), G+ (borderline VG)
This early Indian is right on the line between G6 and VG8. Some of "....RTY" in LIBERTY is visible on the headband. Lower grade, but decent. $15.
USA: Indian Head cent, 1889, EF+ to AU
This little Indian is pretty sharp. It's got choice EF to AU details and looks better than the picture. There are some rim nicks at 2:00 on the obverse and 11:00 on the reverse. Stick it in an album and you might not even see those, though. $11
USA: Indian Head cent, 1909, G+ (borderline VG)
This final-year Indian is on the borderline between G6 and VG8. Some of "....RTY" in LIBERTY shows on the headband. Not counting the more valuable "S" mint cents, this is the date to have in the 20th century pieces. I guess fewer were produced in 1909 because production shifted over to the new Lincoln cents in the latter part of the year. I've recycled the previous owner's pictures above, but the color's all wrong in them. I tried reshooting it without much luck, but I did get one obverse picture which at least shows the color a little bit better. $11.
USA: 25-piece lot of all different pre-1935 Wheat cents, average circulated, P-D-S mints, plus bonus coins
Nothin' special here- just your typical low-end Wheaties- but they're all somewhat earlier dates, and all have different date and mintmark combinations. (I'm tired and don't really feel like transcribing the list of dates in this description, so just look at the scan, would you? - Thanks.) I'll add five bonus coins not seen in the picture, to bring it up to a total of 30 pieces. These are: 1935-S, 1936-S, and 1937-S average circulated, 1951-D gem BU full Red, and a 1950-P full red BU with a small planchet clip at 5:00. This "error" is only about a 1% clip, which looks like post-mint damage but isn't- it's a bonafide clip, just teeny-tiny. It doesn't even intrude fully into the rim, but just looks like somebody pinched the coin. Which the mint machinery no doubt did. Not really worth a premium as an error, but call it a fun freebie nonetheless. Add in one of my custom wooden dollars and a small prehistoric fossil shark tooth, and we've got ourselves an inexpensive package full o' fun for some discerning young collector, perhaps. $9. ($7 if you're buying something else here)
USA: Capped Bust dime, 1833 JR-6, F+ (borderline VF)
Ex-Winston Zack. This coin was the subject of a forum poll here. Great original coin. Many here would affectionately refer to this as a "Crusty Bustie". In hand, it's a nice natural grey, though it looks a tiny bit more goldish-brownish in the pictures. $76.
Love token on USA Seated Liberty dime, 1861 host coin w/ Old English "I" (or "L")
Here's a neat love token. Of course I'm biased- I think all love tokens are neat. If nothing else, they're one-of-a-kind pieces of folk art, on a coin! Some are miniature masterpieces, too. This piece isn't quite masterpiece-level, but it's nice enough. It could be perfect for you if you want a trinket to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the start of the Civil War, perhaps, or if you have the initial "I" or "L". (The Old English letter on the reverse is engraved like an "L", but with a shortish lower extension that makes it look more like an "I", so I guess it could be either, as you please.) $16.
USA: Barber dime, 1914, VF+
Here's a handsome Barber dime with strong detail. It would look good in a bookshelf album. It's off-white and may or may not have been dipped in the past, but it looks all right to me in hand. Bear in mind that the pictures are scans and not photographs. I call it VF30 and others have concurred with that opinion. $14.
Gilt brass "Bremen" aviation medal commemorating the first east-to-west transatlantic flight in 1928
Here's a fascinating piece of history for you. This early aviation commemorative medal celebrates the first east-to-west transatlantic flight (Ireland to Canada) in April of 1928, less than a year after Lindbergh did it from west to east. It's also quite attractive, with prooflike gilt surfaces and a bit of cartwheel luster. A little bit of the gilt has rubbed off the high points of the portraits of the three men, showing brass beneath, but otherwise it looks probably just like it did in 1928. I sold a much lesser example of this medal (VF+, with some digs and no gilt remaining) in 2008, for around fifteen bucks. One side bears the legend "FIRST EAST TO WEST TRANSATLANTIC FLIGHT - APRIL 12-13, 1928", and the names of the three flyers: BARON VON HUENEFELD*, MAJOR FITZMAURICE*, and CAPTAIN KOEHL*. Hey, check out the schnozzle and the misshapen skull of Baron von Huenefeld! That wasn't the most flattering portrait of him, I'd say. According to the Wikipedia article about him, he was dead of stomach cancer within about a year of the flight. His photo sort of bears out the pointy nose seen on the medal. The reverse of the medal shows the Junkers W33 aircraft "Bremen" flying over the ocean below a cloud bank. Below that is an American-looking eagle flanked by flags, with the surrounding legend "BALDONNEL AIRDROME APRIL 12 - GREENLY ISLAND APRIL 13, 1928". There is also a tiny maker's name at the bottom: "WHITEHEAD - HOAG". Whitehead & Hoag were a New York firm who produced political campaign buttons, I believe. $24.
Screw-top coin bezels in assorted sizes
The cent-sized bezels are gold-colored while all of the others are silver colored. I would not recommend these for valuable coins, obviously, but they make nice inexpensive mounts for cheap keepsake coins. A few years back I took some of those gold-plated Statehood quarters from my home state and put some in these bezels, and they sold very nicely at my antique mall booth. I gave my lady boss a Peace dollar in one of these as a Christmas gift, and she was happy. Put some common Indian cents, Buffalo nickels, or Merc dimes in these and I'll bet you'll find them popular. Use needle nose pliers to gently open the crown screw, put the coin in, and screw the crown back on. Be careful not to overtighten or you could snap the stem off.
$2 each (or take the entire remaining stock at the closeout price of $1 each)

What you see on the obverse are old scratches that have since toned over so it's not too bad but it is scratched; someone outlined the bust with something sharp.
I can provide more pictures so you can see the scratches better, just PM me. No rim bumps or anything, other than the scratches it is extremely original.
