OK, so I figured I might as well keep track here as I gather these together and you all can tell me if I got a good one or not. LOL

So here are the ladies I have at the moment. I have a couple more on the way. The pics are not for ID purposes, so I left them in the 2x2s. All will be upgraded to slabs when I get them. Right now everyone I out of the Coin World slabs for some reason. Waiting on some Lighthouse to see if I like them.

Beautiful coins indeed. The pics in the 2X2s are too small and dark to be appreciated.

Great start, but may I suggest you go after the hard/scarce dates first.

Alpha, I was kinda thinking that. I just got a good deal on those 6 later dates I couldnt pass up.

The ones on the way are a 1796 and an 1808. I ALMOST had a very nice AG3 1793, but that fell through.

Some of the more common ones are surprisingly hard to find in nice circulated grades. Keep posting as you get them!

So, after a tour of the mid west courtesy of the USPS, my 1796 and 1808 got here.

The 1808 is the S-277 variety. Its a beautiful coin and I am uber happy with it.

The sellers pics on this one were not great. Had I not known the guy and bought other coins from him, I may not have purchased it. He did not disappoint.

The 1796. This is a P 01 coin. The reverse is slick and just enough detail on the obverse to know what it is. BUT, its an honest coin and the oldest I have for this run. I will upgrade in the future I am sure.

OK, per request, these are the coins that were in the 2x2s. They are now in slabs. :)
