Hello all been a while but I wanted to share i finally found a great example, IMO, of a NS 1837 at a reasonable price point compared to what I had seen over the past couple of years so I pounced. reveal in a day all opinions welcome enjoy and thanks for looking **edit - notice the start of the wicked cool die crack as it comes under Liberty's (your right) foot. This die would continue to deteriorate and eventually become the well known shattered obverse variety and the last time the Large Date would be used by the mint for this year issue. Awesome.

At least AU50, nice rotated die! Interesting stuff going on along the rim.

I gotta go with AU50 based on the amount of wear on the hair and right thigh.
Whoa-buddy! That's nice one!

EF45 I think it might go AU with more luster showing, this would be a good coin for a conservation service. Love the die crack at 4:00 into the dress from the rim.

That one would have to stay in "lay-a-way" for while for me.
With her being placed in the newest (to my knowledge) PCGS holder, it makes me wonder where she has been hiding out at?

she's been sitting somewhere that caused all that patina to thicken up that is for sure...
i did kind of spend a bit more than I am used to on this coin but I REALLY want to have a nice LSD collection. I am close to the entire series with the exception of a handful of key dates. My next big spend is an 1884-S in AU.

I have not used the service myself, but have heard some great results from others that have. "Buy the Book Before You Buy the Coin" - Aaron R. Feldman - "And read it" - Me 2013!
