Congratulations, that's a great accomplishment!  Is your 1885 a proof? If looks like it from the photo. In general it seems that the 1885 proofs are much more available than high-grade circulation coins. I'd be interested in seeing a closeup of that coin if you can post more photos. |

Congrats! The 1883 No Cent and 1885 looks UNC. Is there a significant price difference between these and the rest of the years?

Congrats!! Sometimes it seems like forever doesn't it. All of a sudden BOOM you are done and its time to move on to upgrades or another venue. Seems that way to me anyhow. nlp

Feels really good to get this one done! Quote:

I'd be interested in seeing a closeup of that coin if you can post more photos. It is a proof, and it was easier to find it than a high-grade business strike 1885. In fact, it was a little less than 3x what I would have had to pay for a G-4 specimen.   Quote:

But the next question I have is........what's next ?.... I'm close to finishing up my Indian Head cents. I've got all of the keys (1877 and 1909-S) but the error coins may take a while. Also close to finishing up my Walking Liberty halves (need 5 or so common dates, but am trying to do 1940-47 in uncirculated). Uncirculated Mercury dimes are taking a bit longer, but at least the raw 1916-D I got last fall came back from PCGS as G-4. Edited by I Palindrome I

congratulations. And I thought I had done well just yesterday when I put the last two silver Washington quarters in my album and completed the silvers. It is almost a let down. To realize that there is nothing more to do with what was a passion for so long. I like you am almost finished with my LWH's. Just need the 21-D. Anyway congrats again, and that 1885 is a really nice coin. |

Fantastic accomplishment on what I consider to be an undervalued and under appreciated coin. I am working on a Shield set. Great job! Mike |
