Beautiful 1914 Dave... in a ICCS MS-63RB holder, you probably got for a very reasonable price.

Pacific ... What a great token! What does it actually say on both sides. I can read it a little, but no all. Congrats! BTW, are you coming to the RCNA?

@Okie Legend is " PECK'S PATENT TIN MACHINES, INCOMPLETE SETS MADE TROY NY" with a spindle or a windlass. Similar to BL45 Reverse as BL42 . Variety A2 with 90 degree die rotation and a thin flan. Weighs just around 6.1 grams. According the Last ICCS report none graded finer than VF. As to RCNA no , Family wedding that week .

Quote: in a ICCS MS-63RB holder, you probably got for a very reasonable price. Why yes, I did.  Who's a sucker for clean AU LC's? This guy.    Original luster is still present; I'd contemplate it as Mint State were it not for the nature of the few marks on it. Under US$20 shipped.

Great looking coin I'm a sucker for lustrous brown coins also. I don't see any reasons why you wouldn't consider this one as mint state I see no wear. MS63 lustrous brown for me.
Cheers, Bill

Gorgeous 1901 Dave... love the die clash on the reverse of the Queen's hair...

Got them in a online auction . The DP9 is what drew my interest , pictures weren't great and I didn't notice the 91's . 60 coins in all , all Vicky pennies . They are ... 2-DP9 #2 ( One has heavy damage to the fields) 1-DP9 #1(unconfirmed) 1-DP9 #3(unconfirmed) 1-DP9 #4(unconfirmed) 4-91 LDLL 2-91 SDLL 2-91 SDSL obv3a 1-91 SDSL obv2 1-92 obv2 4-94's and 25, (all different) 59's The only ms coin (maybe) is a 96, probably cleaned. The rest is a mish-mash . I did not get any 81's or 82's  All in all pretty happy

Nice coins the dollarman... I really liked your specimen strikes. Pre-1967 specimen strikes are very low mintage and beautiful coins.
