Recent auction win. I haven't won any in quite some time. I remember I use to get these Un Pesos and other Mexican silver coins pretty regularly. But here recently, people have been buying them up and spending way too much for them when there barely is any silver in them at all.

My newest pursuit. Taking time away from silver for a little while. I am trying for a set of 2 cent pieces sans 1872 & proofs, varieties not important. Grading Co not too important(sticking with the big 3). 1872 and proofs not included. It's an easier to set to accomplish albeit at only 90% in this case. I think it could take 1 year. Anyway, I think this is a good start.

My other newest, non-silver pursuit. This will be more specific in requirements - NGC(these seem to be a little ore reasonable in price), AU58 only. I am hoping to have it completed in 2-3 years, sans the 11D(out of my league). The scratches on the rev appear to be on the holder.

A great deal of patience is required to search through the giant messy haystack that is ebay, but every once in awhile you find a great deal buried in there. 1817 N-3 (R2) Large Cent, $5 bid win It is a bit darker, and smoother, in-hand.

This quartet of Lincolns are not without issues here and there, but overall, the colors are quite pretty, especially the woodgrain.   Another $5 large cent, this 1829 is counterstamped "J. FRAME" on the reverse.   An entry for 2019's Ugly Coin Contest, perhaps, this poor 1872 Indian Head cent has seen its share of handling!

Used ebay bucks to fill some Dansco Buffalo nickel holes :) Not high grade coins but not terrible, just honest circulation. The 1914-S has some odd toning (cleaned?) and the 1926-S has some scratches, but I think I did pretty well on the 1931-S! 1914-S   1918-D   1926-D   1926-S   1931-S
