Great save Matt, the Etrac is still the Cadillac.Congrats on the big shiny. Will be interested in your thoughts on it once you get some time in with it as opposed to the Equinox. Good luck. Mark

It’s not very often that a half turns up. That is a beautiful coin. Congrats!

Congrats on the walker, still on my list after ten years. Only coin I ever gouged was a 1900 CC Morgan two years ago. It was a bucket lister until than so I had mixed emotions, happy and sad.

Congrats on the Big silver, don't feel bad I put a nasty scratch on my first Barber quarter a 1895 S! It was under a root and was trying to keep the hole small in a very well kept yard. It was in great shape too until I gashed it right across Lady Liberty's cheek.

I have a theory that sometimes when I'm looking for silver that is deeper and I am focusing on softer beeps you can hit a big silver and pass right over it thinking it's shallow clad. I'm focused on beeps that a deeper dime or quarter would make not half dollars that would be louder do to size. Like bam that's just shallow clad.

Yeah, I suppose someone had a coil over it, but passed on it as a shallower clad quarter??
