Quote: you got that as a raw coin? No, it's slabbed in an old ANACS white holder.

nice
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

Nice Andrew! I'm torn between whether or not I should continue to build my Seated dollar collection or expand my early dollar set. Early dollars really aren't scarce but command big premiums. Yet Seated's are very scarce especially in AU. There are only two 1867 Seated dollars listed for sale right now on ebay.

OMG. I'm so jealous Andrew and Mike. I'm more of a Bust guy. But, I could learn to love the Seated lady too. Are both coins AU58s?

I pretty much like anything pre-1873, including both bust and Seated coins. I want to get an early date CBH or large diameter CBQ.

I love 20c pieces, but the series, though short, is uncompleteable.

If you go to collector's corner which summarizes a segment of dealer inventories, there are 487 Seated dollars and 283 Bust Dollars. Bust dollars tend not to be ebay coins so much. Neither do Seated dollars.

Andrew - Beautiful 1800. Perhaps you could show all of the varieties together some day.
