Bronze & Copper Collector

I shall presume that it is NOT your birth year.... BTW, Nice coin.... congratulations. ...

See my posts on the previous page with close-ups, full reverse images, and additional die information.....

Excellent !!! How could I forget " WHATEVER" ???

TOTALLY.... YOUR AWESOME.....

Old proverb: "Better to keep mouth closed and be thought a fool, than to open it and remove all doubt."

In partial summation, subject to additional entries: SO, I LITERALLY, TOTALLY, ABSOLUTELY agree with all of the above peeves..... THERE (THEIR ) all so AWESOME.... YOUR AWESOME.... For mentioning them.... That's BASICALLY it.... [Written tongue in cheek] PS : Let us not forget other annoying misuses : you're/your they're/there/their two/to/too weather/whether use of "OF" instead of "HAVE" ("I should of" instead of "I should have") overuse of the word "BASICALLY " absolutely seriously OMG!! Overuse of "YOU KNOW" in conversation I'm sure there are more, but that is all I can think of at the moment... Admittedly, some can be attributed to spell or grammar checking ( or lack of it), or just simple mistyping.. (big fingers, small keyboar d - happens to me all the time)

OMG!!!!! How could I forget them...... Not to mention when "HARD" is used in place of "DIFFICULT" ... [I'm guilty of that myself.....]

As they say "Hare today, gone tomorrow".

Many people are dying to have that position under you........ Must be some sort of plot.......

A wise decision....

Excellent. . I have truly received my comeuppance......

I wanted to be a porn star too, Except I couldn't rise to the occasion....

Probably in the same category as the 1889 farthing mentioned by Michael Freeman.....

With me it was rearranging album pages.... I finally started leaving empty slots to make rearranging slightly less intense....

I'll have to do a little study of my 1850 penny.... not sure what the original date was nor if happened to be the coin mentioned in Peck's footnote.....

There is no 1849 halfpenny. . Robs' 1849 halfpenny is probably like my 1850 penny...... (and 1933, 1952, and 1954 pennies) A post mint alteration PS: wouldn't mind adding it to my collection at an affordable price....

Serve it to your guests with dinner..... If they can figure out how to get at the rum and drink it without damaging the coin, they can keep the coin....

Not my area of expertise, however, based solely upon the strike and not even considering other factors, yours is the superior coin....... factoring in the luster, eye appeal, etc., the two coins are not even close.......

Excellent catch...... Congratulations......

Exactly. ..... Simplest obverse to confirm or eliminate. ...

It's the simplest and most logical explanation......

Just a random thought, possibly because the auctioneer uses a wooden gavel and he is acting on their behalf.... Meaning the gavel won it, or the "wood" won it..... as good a guess as any....

I did not intend to repost this, however the forum software loaded it and I could not get out of it without submitting it.... That being said, thank you for your support in commenting favorably....
