1818 Overton-111 Capped Bust, 1853-O, 1854-O Seated Liberty and 1941-1945 Walking Liberty Half Dollars.
The 1818 has been my regular "worry stone" for awhile now, replacing the 1853 and 54'. The Walking Liberties are 5 from a roll of 20 I purchased over the weekend for a few bucks under spot, per coin.
I really like the blue label holders. Great looking coin.
Still have one more neon rainbow toned ancient that is being imaged. I will upload it soon too.
I bought this as a type coin, a lot of the Randall coins have these die cracks through the stars. This one graded MS62, I like the residual mint red around the devices.
Struck using Obverse Die-3 and Reverse Die-C of 1817, the Newcomb-3 of 1817 is a fairly common die-marriage of a common date. The availability of higher graded examples of this date are largely due to the Randall Hoard, a large wooden keg filled with mostly 1816-1820 large cents, discovered under a train platform in Georgia after the US Civil War. The keg, belonging to coin dealer and collector John Randall contained thousands of AU and MS condition Large Cents, particularly of 1818 and 1820. Despite their higher grades, many of these specimens are notable for their unattractive, uneven surfaces and spotty appearance, speculated to be the result of sitting in a damp, wooden barrel for unknown period of time.
Not as evident with my phone but under the loupe the D is doubled
I've been putting together a MS FSB Mercury date set over the last few years and grabbed this 1940. Not sure if I care to collect each mint in the immediate future but I would like to at least complete a full date set.
Struck using Obverse Die-3 and Reverse Die-D, the Overton 104 of 1821 is a common variety of a common date of Capped Bust Half Dollar.
This specimen marks the 10th date and 12th die-marriage of the type currently in my collection.
