I would think the best grade Flowing Hair you would find for $500 would be P-01 but would still be a joy in hand. Report this Post to the Staff
Jaymon74 Pillar of the Community United States 844 Posts	Posted 12/20/2012 5:09 pm When I think about classic, I think about a "Draped Bust Half Cent". This $500.00 should get me an 1800 Draped bust Half Cent in condition of AU-50 on the right day. Just sayin. Edited by Jaymon74 12/20/2012 5:14 pm Report this Post to the Staff

jnew2117 Valued Member United States 57 Posts	Posted 12/25/2012 2:47 pm I think I'd try to find an MS Standing Liberty quarter. They're one of my favorite designs, but are just a bit too spendy to be buying on a regular basis. Report this Post to the Staff
