The 96 actually found me at a time when I had the $$$ for it, I never had that fortune for the 04.

You could send that in for an upgrade. It should grade VF easy.
1796 Browning 2
1807 Browning 2. This piece is of some importance to die variety collectors because it is an early die state.
And here are the next two types.
Capped Bust, Large Planchet
Reduced Size Quarter, Capped Bust
Bravo!

Getting outta the water, it's way too deep for me over here.
I do like bust quarters. I always keep out an eye for them..

<< <i>Bill--that 96 is just perfect! >>
Back when I bought that piece in the mid 1980s I showed that piece to very well known dealer, who recently won a major award from the ANA. He too agreed that it was "perfect" for the grade and offered me a $500 profit on it. I turned him down since it was for my collection. More than 20 years later he asked me if I still had the piece, which really amazed me. This dealer handles millions of dollars worth of coins a year, and yet he remembered this piece from two decades ago. Simply amazing.

A coin like that you don't soon forget. He knows it's special.
Too many positive BST transactions with too many members to list.

to bring it back to everyman-type coins now that it's Monday and most of us have to go back to work
this one was one of my first dbqs
when I consider the unique history of each of these old coins, the people who used them and all the things they bought over the years,
it's with a sense of wonder that they cost less than last year's special ASE coins that have 99,999 others exactly alike them

Wow! I've not seen a 1815 like that before. Usually what I find are the ones that have been through the wringer.
Pretty!
do you mean, "ones that are very rich with the history of many many early American transactions"?
