12 left


1810 Half Cent

1909 VDB LWC (FINALLY upgraded this coin! Green toning on obverse shows luster through it, looks natural)
Cotw's-
Cotw's-


Half way there!


1914 S LWC (Something about this coin just "speaks to me")
Cotw's-
Cotw's-


1922 D LWC (NGC Fine Details, cleaned. One of my first "key dates" ever)
Cotw's-
Cotw's-


1892 Dime (AU Details, cleaned and graffiti. I love this coin because it looks very nice even though its cleaned, and I like to think about how someone got this coin in 1892 and put there name on it. I wonder who M.T. was? Lots of luster in hand)
Cotw's- Cotw's-


1916 Barber dime (Again, not a high value coin but I enjoy the look or eye appeal of this one. Very nice coin IMHO.)
Cotw's-
Cotw's-


1897 S Morgan dollar (Cleaned, but still a "luster bomb". Again, not a high value coin but it is soaking in eye appeal, at least in hand it is. I need new pics for this coin, these ones suck!)
Cotw's-
Cotw's-


1935 Buffalo nickel, AU-50 (Again, nothing special, but this is my second every Buffalo nickel. Its also AU!
Cotw's-
Cotw's-


1868 Shield nickel (XF Details, RPD#? I lost the number, but its around here somewhere... Cherry Picked from Bill Fivaz at a coin show, and then sold to me by a fellow CCF'er)
Cotw's-
Cotw's-


1915 D LWC, AU ish (Not a bad coin, received it for my birthday along with a few other goodies)
Cotw's-
Cotw's-


1865 2 Cent Piece (Just love the design, and hey, it has to come with me in my box of 20!)
Cotw's-
Cotw's-


And last, but not least...
1927 LWC, G Details (First Wheat cent ever, and actually this is probably last AND least out of all of these coins lol)
Cotw's-
Cotw's-



Thank you so much for all of you for taking a look at this... I know I probably looked over some of my cool coins, but whatever. Have a good night, all! Thank you all for being a part of the greatest coin forum in the universe!

Nice coins. I'm hoping that there is a connection between your 5000th and 4999th posts!

Nice collection! I really like the 1829 capped bust half

I'm looking forward to seeing what your top 20 looks like at 10,000 posts
