ratman4762 Pillar of the Community United States 2520 Posts	Posted 05/06/2009 01:35 am Here's a couple I got at a bargain price quite a while back. I offer these up for your opinion. Would like to know how close I come.

Jaobler Pillar of the Community United States 6384 Posts	Posted 05/06/2009 09:57 am My opinions: 1825 Half Cent: VF-30 details, corroded (metal detector find?). 1833 Half Cent: VF-20, possibly cleaned, but no porosity. 1858 Flying Eagle cent: VF-20 (looks pretty original). 1853 arrows Half Dime: VF-25 (looks pretty original). I always appreciate a bargain. What kind of price did you pay? Report this Post to the Staff
ratman4762 Pillar of the Community United States 2520 Posts	Posted 05/06/2009 10:54 am Metal detector find maybe...I don't know. I paid a quarter apiece for these....around 1977. Report this Post to the Staff
coins92 Pillar of the Community United States 851 Posts	Posted 05/06/2009 3:24 pm My absolute best bargain was when I was about 7 years old(9 years ago) when I was in upstate New york and bought two Peace dollars for 2 dollars a piece. I have them still today and one was a 1928 S. They are what got me started. Report this Post to the Staff
coinguybrian Rest in Peace United States 5375 Posts	Posted 05/06/2009 3:30 pm Agreed with Jaobler on the grades, except the first Half Cent. I'd go maybe XF/XF + corroded, looks to have a lot of original details left. Report this Post to the Staff
DVCollector Bedrock of the Community United States 10045 Posts	Posted 05/06/2009 4:05 pm Wow...not bad at all for all of $1. The first coin looks buried at one point. I'll only grade what I know...I'd say the FE is F-15 to VF20 too, I think the photo hides some detail. Very nice! Report this Post to the Staff
