Here's a couple of nice upgrades for my 2-3 cent collection:

The 1855 3CS still has a bit of luster to it with some slight bluish and reddish toning. It also comes with some obvious die clashes. With the exception of around the obverse bottom-right quadrant, the coin is pretty well struck. It's nice to see all the shield details on an 1855.

The 1871 2¢ has only the faintest traces of wear and an average strike. This year can come with a poor strike but I'm pretty satisfied with this one overall.

Very nice coins! (Great die clash on the '55!)

I've always been a big fan of Brian Greer. Used to get the monthly listing in the mail before the Internet days, and he's one of a very few dealers I'm willing to purchase from without having a picture of the coin on the website.
