So I open my group of 70 1859 cents, from the recent RCNA auction, bought at about $3.50 each...and am about to throw a bunch into some olive oil, but decide to look at them just in case.
7th coin in, I fish out a 1859 DP3, in F with some corrosion, and I'm jumping up and down. 12th coin in, I fish out a 1859 DP5 in VF and my jaw hits the floor.
I couldn't believe my luck...I've wanted a DP5 so badly and its so hard to find!! Hard slab CCCS here you come!
