Muddler - thanks for creating this awesome thread as it's an eye opener for me. I only have coins in a few categories and am enjoying the variety of this show.

I was hoping to see some 16d's - nice - johnson1488 and johnny54321. No surprise that it's the only merc I'm missing from a very modest collection I pulled from circulation many years ago. Maybe I should just sell my car and buy one

Here's my #6 favorite 1867 Two Cent

Thanks Muddler for the idea for this wonderful thread. I have seen some very, very nice coins and more to come. Number 6 on my list is this 1858 Flying Eagle Large Letters....

They really shouldn't be taken into account. Just like toning, though, people have their favorable and unfavorable opinions about clashing, and may subconsciously let it affect their opinion.

As for me, that was one coin I ended up regretting selling.

SuperDave- That would have been a hard coin for me to part with as well. IMO that coin is just too cool.

Muddler- Pm'd you.
