Steve - that's one amazing NB Vicky - what does she grade?

Great 1877 Fuzzy - maybe one of these days I can get a similar one.

Here is another one of the pieces I got as a kid when buying the 1855 O Seated Half posted above. The price back then was 3.00. As a kid this one thrilled me b/c of its age and the 675,000 mintage seemed extremely low.

The bad pic does not show the S on the REV - but it is there.

Earle42, the stories your two worn halves could tell! I once found an 1963 s roll searching in similar shape. This one was probably yanked from circulation prior to the civil war and has been kept ever since.

Another Indian princely state, Baroda.

Your-12-Favorite-19th-Century-Coins!

1 paisa dated VS 1950 (AD 1893).
The ruling line of Baroda descended from a Maratha soldier who got a "Distinguished Swordsman" award in 1721. Looks like they don't want you to forget it. Another remark on the design, the outer ring on the reverse almost reminds me of a Canada large cent.

Earle => that 1864 New Brunswick Vicky is graded ICCS-VF30 (yah, I like that coin ... a lot)

=> wow, it seems like a "Seated Libery Half" is a fairly sought-after coin with you USA coin collectors? (I'll have to try and purchase one => then maybe I'll be able to speak the language and learn the secret handshake, just in case I ever go to an actual coin-show!)

=> nice coins gang

Geesh => I am running out of options (I think I may have mis-counted!?)
