Bronze & Copper Collector

Split planet This is the most extreme version that I know of... I'm on my cell phone and don't see where to post a link Help someone. .. thanks www.brokencc.com

I have a few... not sure of the dates... I always called them "Spiked Necks"...

IMHO an extraordinarily clear and distinct 9/9.

This is from memory. The original classic kryptonite was green. .. There is also red gold blue maybe more colors... More importantly in reference to how an image is displayed, you can take the exact same image on different monitors and displays depending upon the settings, and they will vary

My condolences to you and your family....

Am on my cell phone, so images are small.... But my gut feeling is post mint..... I have a few from the 1890's.... all post minting.

I'm on my cell phone, so the images are smallish, and I can't confirm by counting teeth... However, based upon what I can see , your attributions are correct.....

Both my reverse N's (wide dates 1878) obverse 14 & obverse 15 are in fine to vf... I have another 15 & N in good however that has slightly thicker legends..... My 1878 reverse O's are only in good to fine.. Tough date to find in high grade.

Would be very useful indeed!The only other thing I take note of too is the rarity as defined by Freeman because it gives a general idea of the quantity out there. Adding anything now is a challenge anyway because of the sheer number of coins you have, but as it stands it's still an amazing reference for penny collectors! It would have to be adjusted to reflect new discoveries of known to him varieties plus census/estimated rarity of "not in Freeman" varieties (i.e.: Gouby varieties, etc.).. John Jerrams made a notable attempt in his SATIN reference, however as that was many years ago, even that is now outdated...

I would use the Freeman, Gouby, Peck, Bramah, etc., catalog numbers & descriptions, as do most auctions.Where one lists a specific variety and the others do not, use the basic type and list the specific variant as a descriptor. Eventually, as the website approaches a certain point, it can be used as a starting point for a new reference volume with Hi-Definition images and descriptions. As no collection will ever be fully complete, this can and probably should be a joint venture with some other high grade collections. Hopefully the goal would be to include images and references of ALL known varieties. A population census would be nice too but would be outdated before publication. Put me down for the first copy..... PS: Magnificent presentation...

A worthless coin ;-)

I can think of many adjectives that would be more representative for your collection of pennies. Nice ??Rash, that is modesty to excess !!!!!! Well said!!!

Thanks Peter... Just saw the posts about Mrs Peter... Hope she's doing well...All the best to you too...

Thank you all for the kind wishes.. I actually got the best possible birthday present the other day, when I found my lost dog that ran out last week... 900 signs and several miles of walking later we received a call from someone who saw him.. He's at the vet now, hopefully not too much the worse for wear.. I can't ask for more...

It's difficult to tell on my cell phone... but it looks like the 3 might be over a higher 3 too...

LOL.... When I clicked on the link, it says "TEMPORARILY SOLD OUT" Intetesting

MAGNIFICENT open 3... Best I've ever seen...

I'm on my cell phone, so the images are small... However I do see indications of tooling or other work being done to the coin. With that caveat being stated, IMHO the date was removed post minting.

Not that I am aware of.... I have the F/P with obverses 6 & 7.. Reverse G.... I will have to check my F-274's now.... I have seen some that were misleading

Obverse 5 Reverse E...F-274

I believe it is a reverse E I believe the f/p to be unknown on reverse E.... we would need images of the obverse to determine what is correct die pairing is... This might be a new discovery if it is indeed an F/P....

Looks like an F/P to me... I'm on my cell phone so the image is small... Check which obverse it is... It exists with both obverse 6 & obverse 7... Obverse 7 being the scarcer of the two...

Nice.... That's one that I still need.....

A Healthy and Happy Birthday...

send me PM with your email and I'll send the scan....
