Nice! I always like seeing photos of 18th-century US coins!

I like it better than my "1793?".

That's a super nice 1793 - I have never been able to afford one in any condition.
For a "damaged" coin it looks fine, I think the obverse punch marks probably did it in and not the reverse ding; but then again, this is why a lot of EAC folks crack 'em out of their tombs.

Nice. Have all three 1793. All in slabbed poor condition. Can't afford upgrades.

Affordability is a real problem. The number of great coins available is high, but they start in the 4 figures and ramp up steeply. TimNH's coin is much nicer than the $3500 Chain I saw at our local shop, though the chain itself is strong on that coin.

Hey look at that, my old Wreath bubbles to the top out of the blue  Yeah it was a shade under $1K which I consider a nice grab, I must have watched 100 of them go by and this one I put in my bid and it actually held up. I still need a Chain and a Half Cent, both of those go for much much more, still looking ...
