jfransch Pillar of the Community United States 1801 Posts	Posted 01/18/2010 4:49 pm I took advantage having the day off work to scan some more of my collection into a digital file I can view without having to go into the bank safe deposit box. Thought I would share a few of my favorites. 1768/7 MoMF pillar dollar, one of the more difficult overdates to locate in higher grades 1826 NG M Central American Republic 8 Reales. This has always been one of my favorite coin designs on the obverse with the sun peaking over the mountains. 1824 Cuzco Mint 8 reales, this is a one year only type coin and this is the rarer of the 2 assayers (but not as rare as the "over assayer G/T" http://www.coincommunity.com/forum/...7MoMF004.jpg http://www.coincommunity.com/forum/...MFRev005.jpg http://www.coincommunity.com/forum/...26NGM006.jpg http://www.coincommunity.com/forum/...GMRev007.jpg http://www.coincommunity.com/forum/...uzcoT008.jpg http://www.coincommunity.com/forum/...oTRev009.jpg Report this Post to the Staff

DVCollector Bedrock of the Community United States 10045 Posts	Posted 01/18/2010 8:54 pm Very nice group! Do I see a 1768/7? Report this Post to the Staff
jfransch Pillar of the Community United States 1801 Posts	Posted 01/18/2010 11:50 pm DV Collector, yes that is a 68/7 with a really nice bold overdate. I hunted a long time to find that coin, hard to find in undamaged higher grades. The pillar dollar series is full of overdates, I check every coin I see offered for sale at a show for overdates and other "interesting" strike feaures. Report this Post to the Staff
