gorgeous, original brown surfaces. a great planchet. when the coin is tilted in the light all the hair relief detail comes into play!
VERY nice medium brown planchet(screen may show it darker than is). Very light, even wear. Not as common to find this nice as people might think. I literally jumped on this coin as soon as I saw its availability at RCNH.
The perfect type coin in the maximum grade I could afford. smooth, problem-free surfaces, uniform dark chocolate brown. 1803, the perfect date. great obverse detail approaching vf20
tough, tough type coin to find with a reasonable planchet. this one seems to fit the bill with a non-porous, chocolate brown surface and strong vg-10 detail
wholesome, original with nice strike save the A in states. the wear is nice and even and the feathers are very near complete!
truly, a perfect type piece. besides the great strike and original surfaces, it was in the grade/price range I needed
pretty good match with the half dollar, a fair amount of luster(both sides) not visible in the pic
I love the no stars! Liberty here is like a portrait floating on a device-free background. the original surfaces are key here. a special coin, bought raw several years ago and now in a PCGS picture-frame, I mean, holder!
beautiful luster, great surfaces. a wholesome original miniature!
an original, untampered-with album-toned piece, not so easy to find. soft liberty, but nice xf details otherwise
like the capped bust dime the sight of the coin immediately grabbed me. literally, a no-brainer purchase!
perfect type coin! these arrows are not easy to find in this grade for some reason-nice gold-gray.
It took three years to find this coin! Yes, dipped, but there is a lot of meat left on the bone. Nice metal-flow here with the wings and eagle's head "appearing" on the obverse of the coin. Great to see when rotating the coin in the holder. Hair above eye is complete and only slight rub on cheek and neck. The luster though is seemingly unbroken.
Purchases are now coming fewer and farther between. the quest for original coins gets more difficult, but here one came along with original patina and dirt in the perfect collector grade of vf-35! Nice that the clasp is all there. Strong Liberty for grade and even though hair detail could be better, nice head detail.
beautiful, unmessed-with warm gold surfaces. a 58 that looks like an unc! wonderful luster on the obverse which is not common. notice the luster band coming down diagonally on the headdress feathers: this is caused by the metal flow induced by the reverse eagle's back feathers. a PQ58 here!
my first ASG designed coin! perfect original super slider with just the slightest bit of rub on the cheek. The perfect choice for type-grade-cost.
