It hasn't been a slow time for me personally at all. But that means coin collecting has taken a back seat to other things, and I've already snarked enough about "plus grading." My most recent additions to my collection are a bit quirky. One was an AU-58 1896 Spaulding & Co. So-Called Dollar. The other was an MS-64 Red 1903 U.S. 1/2 Centavo. Hardly front page news, at least not for more than a century. I did send out a few coins to NGC, and got back the usual mix of good news (a 3cn slabbed out in PR65), expected news (an INS MS-65 Connecticut crossed at MS-64, an F15 doubloon), and disappointments (my first NGC purple label for tooling). Pretty boring, huh? -- Mike Benveniste -- (Clarification Required) Its name is Public opinion. It is held in reverence. It settles everything. Some think it is the voice of God. -- Mark Twain |

Some new's is better than no news. Is the spaulding and Co. a gold dollar or Silver? |

It's a silver piece, with 823 grains of coin silver to denote the claimed value of a gold dollar and a "wagon wheel" to indicate the size of a "government" silver dollar. The slab is marked HK-785, but I don't have the Hibler and Kaplan reference work. Original toning, but with three rim irregularities/dings, and entombed in one of the massive NGC multi-coin slabs. My macro lens is out on loan, but it there's interest I can shoot some photos. -- Mike Benveniste -- (Clarification Required) Its name is Public opinion. It is held in reverence.

Well, dayum, as they say in East Texas. Lets pad it out a little. Things I
don't have, have the money for, and can't find anywhere close to what is pulished as a retail price. To finish out a type set. Since I deslab coins to do this, I don't want to get too good a coin. This set is for people to look at. Lib Seat quarter arrows/rays 1853 MS-60. Capped bust Dime 1828-37 MS-60 (prob 31 or 37). Draped Bust Cent 1796-1807, XF-40 (prob 1802/03/04). Would love to help the economy. |
