scottk Pillar of the Community United States 767 Posts	Posted 02/09/2015 9:23 pm I have been working on a set of late date large cents for a few months. I have been surprised at the quality of coins I've been able to afford from some good sellers. Some are better than others. I have 10 dates out of the full 19 (1839-1857). This is the coin that got me interested in them in the first place. It was part of a "lot" of 11 low grade coins I got in an auction on ebay for $16 many months ago. I was drawn to this particular coin out of the group. So $16 Ã·11 = $1.45 Yep, a $1.45 large cent.... I culled several coins from my collection recently that were problem coins, but I didn't get rid of this one. I am rather attached to it. Do you have an odd or "problem" coin that you wouldn't get rid of? Report this Post to the Staff

I paid a lot more that Scott's $1.45 coin. Mine was $2.00 but that includes the 'feature' that allows me to hang it on a nail. Member ANA and EAC "You got to lose to know how to win".
