32nd coin 1833 Capped Bust Half PCGS VF35 This one didn't cost more than $120 and its 179 years old! Nice "crusty" look which I like and it being certified is a guarantee at least to me that its authentic and the slab will help protect it. If it was in a ANACs or NGC slab, I would have bought it. Capped bust halves are nice and I like the design. Glad to add this one to my collection

33rd coin 1875CC Trade dollar PCGS XF40 CAC I just recently traded and got my first Trade dollar and it was a 1875CC of a lower grade. This is an upgrade in terms of grade but I am unsure if I will get rid of the lower grade one as I think anything with a CC mintmark is cool! Who knows, I will update if I decide to replace the other one and take it off of here, it was posted like 1-2 pages back. This upgrade has a nice original look to it, not cleaned or dipped and it has the CAC sticker

34th coin 1831 Capped Bust Half ANACS XF40 This coin had a nice dark "crusty" look to it and it was cheap so I bought it a while back. I hope I didn't post if earlier in the thread but if I did, I will edit lol. I'm happy with this coin

35th coin 1854 $1 Gold PCGS AU58 I put the dime there as a reference as to the size.......they are small!! If these were used in circulation, gosh I bet they easily were lost due to their small size! But of course I bet $1 then was quite a bit of money so people watched their money closely. This is my first ever $1 gold coin and I'm happy with it and to own a piece of history :) I want to own a Type 2 or 3 as the design is different.

36th coin 1859 Seated Liberty quarter PCGS VF30 My first ever Seated Liberty quarter and I got it here on the CCF, today in fact. Still need to pay for it though haha. I like the circulated look as it tells a story I bet, I wonder who had it in their pockets and what they bought with it? Still has a good amount of detail, nice coin and it was just $50. The slabbing fees probably cost that much alone!

Very nice coins, sir. Thank you for sharing. This is a great topic I will definitely follow this. I do have two questions though. 1) do you like your bread as crusty as your coins? and 2) is that a rotation error on coin 31 the 1914 D cent or just a picture taking error?
