What were they selling for cashwise? If you bought them for a few bucks over spot you did really well. I got the Peace dollars for $18 each and the Morgans for $20-24 each. A bit more than a few bucks over spot but still considerably less then the local coin shops are charging for AU silver dollars. |

The $5 1839 Large cent. Date and all stars are clearly visible on obverse, but it doesn't show up in pics; date is weak.   Member ANA - EAC - TNA - SSDC - CCT #890 "Most of the things worth doing in the world had been declared impossible before they were done." -- Louis D. Brandeis |

The Morgans are exceptionally good deals. Is the 1934 Peace dollar an "S". I think there are only 16 coins in the Peace dollar set so you bought 25% if the set in one swoop. I really am going to check the gold dealers. I have checked a few and was not impressed, but just like the guy who got the 1893-S Morgan at an estate sale you live and learn. |

I do believe the 34 Peace dollar is an "S". I will check it again to verify. I checked again and it is an "S" Edited by goodkarmarising

Always wanted a Ben Franklin half, to mix it up besides CBH, and I purchased this one. This one has a beautiful orange toning, reminds me of a sunset.  |

Just picked this up from a local show since I missed out on the Mint release. I WAS going to add it to the 7070 thread in the Mercury dimes, but thought better of it......   |

That is a beautiful coin Aces. I too missed on the mint release. Waiting a while to see how low the price drops in the secondary market before making a decision to purchase.

This was on the floor of a storage unit that I bought at an auction. We were sweeping the floor clean and found this 1865 3 cent piece. Can't wait to see what else I find.   Edited by goodkarmarising

I've shared this one in the "Eye Candy Corner" thread already, but figured I would post it here as well.  |
