Buddha New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted 05/27/2013 11:10 pm I acquired a large stash of coins last year that has got me into coin collecting. I didn't know much but I knew the Trade dollar I found was special. It turned out to be a 1879 proof Trade dollar. Once I became familiar with grading I sent it an 1850 and 1857 Half Cent and a 1932s quarter to PCGS. The Trade dollar came back pr64. The Half Cents were both ms63 bn. The 32s quarter was unfortunately cleaned unc details. The stash had mostly old british coins including 75 conder tokens in what appears to be mint state. 1797 1 and two pence, and about 100 other proof and mint state 19th century coins. I will start putting up some pics. Report this Post to the Staff
