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."

Stephenellis710 Valued Member United States 51 Posts	Posted 02/25/2023 10:09 pm It was my grandfathers in a bag of 1850's large cents, a Three Cent piece and such. I got them after he passed and forgot to look through them. Saw that Buffalo instantly though lol Report this Post to the Staff
Ty2020b Pillar of the Community United States 4680 Posts	Posted 02/25/2023 10:39 pm I'm at AU53 maybe AU55 sharpness, though the obverse wheel mark through LIBERTY and into the field from K3-K5 may detail it. There is one known DDR for this year, no known DDO's, not seeing any signs of doubling on this example. Nice find nonetheless, especially being passed down from a family member.

panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18664 Posts	Posted 02/27/2023 08:42 am thanks grandpap! nice find. solid AU55 and maybe pushing 58 ty2020b nice catch on the wheel mark. its pretty light and may not effect the grade. I've seen several coins with them and some detailed and some graded straight. Report this Post to the Staff
paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 02/27/2023 1:16 pm Grandpa had a good eye for coins. Can't disagree with AU55-AU58. I think it would straight grade.
