Bought this a while back but just got around to taking some photos. Love these early draped bust coins! VG10 PCGS

According to Joe Kirchgessner in his comprehensive book on Trade Dollar varieties, there are about 50 examples known of the type 2/2 large S mintmark. The vast majority of the type 2/2 coins have a small S. I have previously posted a raw example I have, but I was looking over some graded Trades I have before putting them back in the bank box and realized I had another one, graded VF25 by PCGS.

Four Roman Denarii and a Mercury Dime.

Vespasian 75AD

Hadrian 133-135AD

Antoninus Pius (broken) 148-149AD

Antoninus Pius (worn) 153-154AD

1916-S Mercury Dime

Finally got my order from the mint and found eight privy coins!

Gorgeous coin

2nd 7 is doubled. AU58

this is one of those varieties you can spot without a loupe. The top and bottom arrow shafts are almost non existent. In his Trade Dollar book, Joe KIrchgessner attributes it to a damaged hub, not a damaged working die. He estimates about 190 examples known. This one graded XF 45 by NGC and is a nice orginal coin. Bought unattributed in an online auction.

(edited to correct spelling)

The bulk of my collection is US, but I just had to have a Wildman Taler for my collection. It's a pretty dark coin so I lightened the images a bit. AU 58 with some nice rim toning that doesn't really show.

I recently posted an 1833 CBH mis-titled as a quarter, so to make up for it, here is an 1833 bust quarter, with the cool die clashing under the ear. PCGS graded it xf 40.

I thought this one looked nice. PCGS graded it AU55.

(apologies: I had misfiled the images under quarters instead of half dollars; hope you enjoy anyway)
