I got back from a trip yesterday, so that's why I haven't posted for a few days. I spent a couple of days in Victoria, during which I visited the exhibit on gold at the Royal BC Museum, and found my first $20 note on the street. Anyway, my computer has a virus, so it's extremely slow- but here are three pieces I'll sneak in for 1861. 1. 1861 Seated half dime.   These next two are from the collection I have mentioned before. 2. 1861 Quarter Eagle.   3. 1861 Half Eagle.]   I used to have a gold dollar from 1861 as well, but it was sold years ago.

Just saw 2 pages of amazing coins! These were amazing the past two years. The one that stood out to me was oih82w8s silver 3 cent piece! Just a stunning example. Almost looks proof. Is it?

1860 British Bun Penny - first year of issue. This is the earlier 1860 penny with beads rather than denticles around the rim. This particular specimen is not in great shape but has been in my collection since I was a kid and is the oldest coin I ever personally found in circulation (although my Mother once received an 1806 George III halfpenny as a penny). In fact this coin looks pretty good considering it circulated for 110 years!

Quote:Pair of 1860 Indian Head cents, not sure which one to put into my Dansco. Wow, tough call. I like the darker one, but the photo implies (to me) unnatural colour. The one on the right is nice and probably more honest overall. The only solution is to have two albums!

Both look like altered colors, I like the dark one though!
