No corrosion that I can detect. Out of the holder it just screamed to me: "Look at me! I am beautiful." Am not in this to profit - just want to be able to sleep at night. It was sitting amidst a bunch of lousy Kennedy halves. Oh the stories that it could tell if only it could. Just tell me that I did not take advantage of mother Miller. She throws a lovely July 4th picnic! And plays a mean game of Pinochle. |

I like it at EF40+. $25 was a fair price as I assume you were both happy!

I dared not hope for an EF.
I just dashed off a memo to my sister and Doris's daughter asking them if the detect ANY green on the coin.
As I am red-green color blind, I cannot tell.

I posted a reply twice but they did not show up so maybe CCF web site is having a problem? Anyway, I apologize if this reply is repeated. matthewvincent - I think the price was fair. I started a Two Cent collection in AU (not quite completed) and found the 1864 large motto in higher grades to be readily available and reasonable in price. I think there were about 19 million minted. Member ANA and EAC "You got to lose to know how to win". Dream On by Aerosmith Edited by cipster

Boy, sis read me the riot act: "GREEN, both sides!"
You see, Rosemary worked in not only one but two copper/brass mills and knows green when she sees it.
I'll be back tomorrow. Thank you all.

It is just a sample type coin, cipster, and I am happy with it just the way it is.

XF was my first impression when I saw the coin and at $25.00 I don't think you took advantage of the lady like it seems you may have felt you were doing. You should be able to relax and sleep good about the transaction. I know how you get though because I have done the same thing myself. I have bought coins I really didn't know that much about and really wasn't all that interested in but was helping someone out. The more I thought about the coins and what I paid I started thinkiong maybe I should go to this guy and give him more money because I knew he needed it and I wasn't sure I had actually given him enough as I wasn't really wanting them and was in a little hurry when we made the deal. After looking up the coins one by one and their pricing I found out that the deal was fair and it made me feel allot better about having the coins. I don't think I would have been able to ever enjoy the coins if I had found out I under paid him with me knowing he was only selling because he needed the money at the time

I don't see any green...then again I am color-blind as well.  Distinct vertical and horizontal lines on the shield, bow holding together the wheat on the reverse is nice and defined...sharp Two-Cent Piece! Edited by oih82w8

Really nice coin and at 25 bucks I would buy that all day long. I'm no expert on the 2 cent but I sure can't find one that nice at that price and I've been trying. More like double.
