Nothing beats telling your wife that you just spent almost 10k on one single coin :)

You have some gorgeous coins evo! Really nice small cent key collection! All you need now is the 1955 DD, and you'll have all the popular keys. :-)

Very understandable for that particular coin, although most wives might not--without a settlement in kind from Tiffany's, lol.

Did you notice in Lot 189, the toning pattern around the rim is concentrated in the area of the staple ends where it penetrates through the paper. This is very common toning after a long period of time and the staple starts to corrode a little. I have several 2x2 with silver dollars that the dollars have 4 points of toning 90 degrees apart. The dollars seem to be the worst as they are large and closer to the staples.

I guess the 1795 flowing hair half is the one you spent $10,000 on 1siveko. That would be my first guess, then the St. Gaudens $20 - that's a beauty too. They both are pretty sweet.

Nope... not even close. Here's a clue... look at the small cent section :)

Nice Coins I hope the wife takes it well! if not get out off house with your coin in hand she will cool down in a day or two shower I would show her a Coin World display of Morgan that sold for 5-10K and say honey this maybe one?all I have to do is get them graded honey and out for Dinner also will help!

**Its work for me many year ago an Coin World didn't have as many 5-10K Morgan in it then.
