Well I went to the Ft Lauderdale monthly coin club show yesterday. Was hoping to buy some Roman coins but unfortunately the dealer who I buy them from wasn't there that time so I was kind of bummed  But I still managed to pick up some nice coins.  1938 S cent, BU  1926 cent  1936 cent  1955 D cent (it's 2x2 has thicker plastic or something, even the white cardboard part was covered in plastic, so the pics aren't exactly great)  1969-S cent  And here are the favorites out of my pickups: 1992-S clad proof quarter (my birth year)  1854-O Seated Liberty quarter (only one not in a 2x2)  1856 Seated Liberty quarter and finally, 1802 Draped Bust large cent (paid $12 for it, did I do ok on it by any chance?  )  Edited by VisigothKing 11/21/2011 3:44 pm

on your "1802 Draped Bust large cent", I see ones a little better at AG selling retail for $35-$39, so I think you did okay
nice coins BTW

Probably the best deal you will find in a while, the 1802 Large Cent.

Thanks. Happens to be my oldest US now (my previous was my 1832 Capped Bust quarter), and my oldest non-Roman, beating out my 1811 Russian 2 kopeks.

Your purchases are one of the reasons I love coin shows. You did OK for sure.

Forgot to mention: two dealers that work together that I happen to be friends with showed me their 1909 S VDB and their 3-legged Buffalo nickel. First time ever that I saw those coins up close and in person, so that was a cool experience too.
