fengk Pillar of the Community United States 986 Posts	Posted 09/28/2007 9:16 pm For 80, I think that you overpaid a little. I just bought a really nice crusty 1819 in VF for 85 without the graffiti, which will generally lower the value of a coin. I'd attribute it for you now, but I'm feeling a little lazy and tired after a greuling week of school. Report this Post to the Staff
Amazon99 Pillar of the Community United States 2443 Posts	Posted 09/28/2007 9:26 pm Your coin is talking to you! It's saying "Hi". I like the look of it. I wonder who carved "hi" and when they did it. Report this Post to the Staff

Bryan1315 Bedrock of the Community United States 14454 Posts	Posted 09/28/2007 10:13 pm I believe it is a T instead of a I also because the lines going downward on the top of the "T" and the bottom line doesn't have that so thats why I believe its a T Report this Post to the Staff
acidic1 Pillar of the Community United States 632 Posts	Posted 09/28/2007 10:48 pm personally, I liked the tone of the obverse, kinda looks like its been in a fire or something, in turn that makes me wonder where its been, alot of pockets I imagine. Yea bonedigger, I think the "initials" give it a little character and makes me wonder even more. honestly...i'da paid more for it. I bid more for it. Yea, I think I'll like it...when I get it. Thanks all!. Report this Post to the Staff
