1795 1C Plain Edge PO1BN PCGS #1380

The new, darker image that I added here is a truer representation of the coin in hand. A friend was kind enough to photoshop out the dandruff. smh, there is more than enough of it inside the holder. This large cent is part of my lowball set, all dated 1795. I cracked it out soon after purchase because the dandruff bothered me too much. In time, when PCGS gets a better grip on their True View quality control, I will resubmit.

1795 50C Overton 115 FR2 PCGS #39231

Overton 115, R.5 I was waiting behind someone at US Coins in Houston, Texas, peering through the glass counter, when I noticed it from a distance. I was smitten from the start! Protected in a desirable generation 4.4 holder, the coin has an aesthetic that would make Robert Scot smile! Remember, think like an artist, not an accountant. footnote: The TrueView image is perfect! PCGS photographed the coin without removing it from the holder, so I could experience the TrueView of this little jewel in all its glory. That was kind of them.

1795 $1 Flowing Hair, BB-21 G4 PCGS #39986

B-1, BB-21, 2 Leaves Variety, R.2 Curious as I was, I cracked it out! Protected now in an Air-Tite holder, I hide it away inside the bowels of my antique Victor safe. I have a private ritual. Periodically, on special holy days, I love to pull it out and hold it in my hand, to study it raw, the way Robert Scot intended. All this, while sitting at my mid-eighteenth-century figured maple writing desk, dovetailed for both strength and beauty. Amazed! I sit transfixed. Then, I put it back. Amen.
