I'm posting this because it has reminded me that now and then you get a coin on ebay that turns out to look better than the picture. Also, I would suggest that the grader who called this BN instead of RB was having a bad day, but I claim no expertise in grading (your opinions welcome; it's a PCGS64). (Photo from vendor.) This is part of what will probably be my last collecting quest--to compose, at a reasonable cost, a decent set of uncirculated Lincolns (just one per year) from 1909 to 1919. The "at a reasonable cost" part of that may keep it from happening, but I'll keep looking for bargains.

First pics are what I saw online.
Second are what I got.

Some days are better than others.
Today was a better day

Has been a busy week at this house.

Purchased a couple Morgan dollars:

First up - beautiful, blast white, PL surface 1887 "gator eye" in an NGC 64 holder.
1883 O, raw, in same condition as above.
1923 Peace, raw - blast white, semi PL surfaces
1925 Peace, raw - white with very slight gold toning

1909 IHC, raw - fiery orange and dark, mint state - probably would not holder because of the color, but WOW.

1909 Lincoln - raw, unc, hints of red, but brown. Just a nice UNC first year of issue.
1917 D Lincoln - raw, will grade BN, but some red left. Probably an MS62 or 63 coin - slightly soft strike.
1920 D Lincoln - raw, will grade BN, but some red left. SUPERB strike for date/mintmark - an upgrade for my UNC Lincoln set.

1954 - raw, blast white, bright satin surfaces

.....and branching out into another series.
All Walkers....
1937 S - Unc, blast white, full head 63 or 64
1939 - Unc, blast white, full head 63 or 4
1940 - same
1941 - same
1941 - AU? Slightly soft obverse strike
1942 - Unc, blast white, full head, slightly soft reverse strike 63 or 4
1942 - AU? Slightly soft obverse strike
1943 - Unc, blast white, full head 63 or 4
1944 - Unc, blast white, full head 63 or 4
1945 - Unc, blast white, full head 63 or 4
1947 - Unc, blast white, full head, slightly soft reverse strike 63 or 4

....and...

1898 V nickel - found by my wife's boss in her purse. Must have received in change somewhere. Dark, but a GREAT find!!

This 1753 A 1/24 Thaler from Prussia arrived today.
Now there is only one more coin of that type missing in my Prussia collection.

I wish I could say that this is the latest Canadian addition and the 237th addition to my 1946 collection but it's going back - my FIFTH Newfie 10-cent piece that arrived noticeably whizzed.

Pic looks pretty nice doesn't it?

Aaaaghhh.

I've got a bunch of coins from a collector who has decided to quit the hobby and now sells his entire collection. Among the coins were 5 and 10 Reichspfennig from the Reichskreditkassen (these two types are the only one so I got this set complete instantly) and 1/2 Silbergroschen from Prussia, which is in a pretty good shape.

The 2 Reichpfennigs are not common coins. Congrats.

I'm still working on a collection I picked up back in June. This is one of the coppers that had lots of crust and green. It turned out better than I expected.
Austrian Netherlands, 2 Liard, 1778.
