It does Vinnie :)
Although the S-65 in the slot now has a full date, this one blows it away in detail.

Lettered edges. They humble me.
Of course, it defeats the purpose by putting it in the hole of a Dansco!

Those lettered edge pics are amazing  . Too bad the dansco doesn't showcase it. Whatever, that is a beauty front, back and sides!  |

Sweet - and I'm a tad jealous too. I want a 1794 so bad, but for now I'll have to suffice with my copy of Adams 1794 cents by Bowers book/price list. I need to shoot some photos of it for those that have never seen or heard of it before. It is an amazing collection of 1794 large cents that he sold entirely through Q. David Bowers back in 1982-1983, I was taking the ANA Summenr Seminar course on a scholarship, and had picked "All about Coins" because Dave was the instructor, and only YN's were allowed to take the class. He gave each of us a copy of the book as it had just come of the press and was about to be mailed out to potentail buyers of the Adams coins. What an amazing collection of EAC's. "Buy the Book Before You Buy the Coin" - Aaron R. Feldman - "And read it" - Me 2013!

Nice coin! Those rims look sweet! Always tough to find a nice coin like that.

VERY nice pickup!! What are you using to hold the coin up on edge? I've always found the rims super hard to photograph and especially hard to prop up like you have yours. I'd like a better way than what I use now. |

Looks like he stuck it in a wad of chewing gum on the table. Clever... I'm going to have to remember that little trick.

Actually, it's earthquake putty :-)
Living in So. Cal, they sell this stuff everywhere.
Your local Home Depot should have it. It's totally safe for coins.
Let me know if not Moe, I'll send you some!
