My name is Larry Stendebach and I am a numismatist, technologist, gamer and geek.
My primary areas of expertise are in United States coinage and computer hardware…so I am a geek on at least two fronts. With over 20 years collecting and studying coins I have developed a deep passion for all topics related to numismatics, and with my background in computer technology, I take a modernist view on the hobby and what makes a great collection. Expect to see my numismatic pickups and musings on this site, as well as some amazing coin images. My work with the coin community has also earned me a moderator position at Reddit Coins – so please come over to Reddit and join the discussion.

I thanks. Having owned a few VF examples before I thought this was an XF40/45 example - pretty sure the obv weakness is die to the failing die. To me looks like an XF40 obv and an AU50 rev (the rever… (View Post)4
