About Me
I've been collecting and studying coins most of my life. My favorite series are the Classic Head Gold/Silver/Copper.
Spent time dealing coins, took a break for 15 years (Kids) and now I'm back. Working on setting up new business (Time Capsule Coins) opening soon.

- The other small date/small 5c for 1835 is indeed the LM-11 - it is listed as a rarity-4 coin (although my opinion is that it's going to be downgraded to R-3) and it's easily distinguished from LM-10 by the more even 1835 and the topmost arrowhead touching the final A in AMERICA.The other small date/small 5c for 1835 is indeed the LM-11 - it is listed as a rarity-4 coin (although my opinion is that it's going to be downgraded to R-3) and it's easily distinguished from LM-10 by the more even 1835 and the topmost arrowhead touching the final A in AMERICA.

- You are spot on. This is the LM-10, which marries 1835 Obverse 6 ("8 high, 3 low") with Reverse EE. This is an abundant marriage for the year - possibly the most abundant marriage for the entire capped bust half dime series! Your coin is in the common state, with the upper loop of S2 (the second S in STATES) filled.You are spot on. This is the LM-10, which marries 1835 Obverse 6 ("8 high, 3 low") with Reverse EE.

- I'm guessing LM-10 Sm Date, Sm 5C, with the flag of the 5 pointed slightly down vs. LM-11 where it's slightly up.
Only going by PCGS photos I could find online.I'm guessing LM-10 Sm Date, Sm 5C, with the flag of the 5 pointed slightly down vs. LM-11 where it's slightly up. Only going by PCGS photos I could find online.

- Just starting to organize my collection on here. Having trouble capturing the PL fields on this one. Also still playing with how bright I can make the image without having it look washed out or too bright on other OS's, Browsers and Monitors.
This is in an old ANACS Soap Box holder. It is not designated but it has beautiful PL+ fields and some cool orange and blue hues around the edges.Just starting to organize my collection on here.

- One more actually designated as PL.
Another Soap Box and I have not been able to take a photo even close to how good it looks in hand. I'd say closer to DMPL than PL....but I guess there is no designation for close so I'll give it 5 stars.One more actually designated as PL.

- Getting harder and harder to find affordable pieces to fill holes. Dansco album now almost complete, only missing 1892-S. Had no idea how challenging this project would be.Getting harder and harder to find affordable pieces to fill holes. Dansco album now almost complete, only missing 1892-S.

- Just picked up my first Half Dime. I'm going for PO1-XF mint sets from 1834-1839 to coinside with my quarter eagle die marriage set I'm working on. I'm hoping I don't get sucked into all the varieities from every denomination. I'll improve the set when I can.....the revers on this has seen better days.
Anyone know if this would grade with the old scratches on the reverse? It seems they forgive a lot more at this grade level, epecially when the scratches are old and toned over.Just picked up my first Half Dime.

- It will grade, reverse AA on your coin appears to be an earlier die state shown by the die chip in the upright of N and lack of filling on the F. Late die states a cud forms @ CA in America.
