I stumbled across an actual "brick and mortar" coin shop here in OKC that is worth a flip (unintentional pun). I picked up a few 7070 types till I get the slabbed versions, at a price that I could not refuse, and I am getting tired at looking at some of the "holes" in my collection.

These are quick images that I popped off before coming in to work this evening.

1854 Half Dime

1891 Dime

Nice picks! Your 1891 seated is better than mine.

The 1891 dimes are almost always weak in the head and often weak on the two bottom leaves in the wreath.
I really like the look of the 1856 dime!

Nice pickups, Half Dimes are a pretty interesting series. I picked one up about a month ago and now I'm hunting for more.

Comet, I found a beautiful 1835 in an auction that looked like a good, honest VF25. Had great eye appeal - I think it sold for $75, which imho was a steal. I'll keep an eye out. Whenever I find a great deal on a coin, I post it up on my "Coin Deals Found" forum.

Where abouts in OKC? I've been searching for a long time, and haven't found anything I like.

Nice finds!

Nice stuff. I have the 91 also for my type set. Probably VF with some nice toning.
