Post your Seated coins!

Post Sun Jan 22, 2012 12:40 am

I am a huge fan of the Seated Liberty design, although I don't have many. I would like for you guys to share with me what you have!

Here is something to get us started, it is a 1858-O Counterstamped half, as far as I and Greg Brunk know, it is completely unique.

Here is a common date half dime, but with a very nice 'circulation cameo'. It has great eye appeal, IMO

Who is Greg Brunk? Any ways... The coins are nice. The counterstamped coins are pretty collectible.

Greg Brunk has wrote several books documenting Counter Stamps, he's been at it since the lat 1980s.

I have a few Liberty Seated in my collection. Unfortunately though, not much in quality. Either way, I still like them all. Someday I will upgrade each and every one of them. But for now, life goes on.

Probably cleaned:

All of my 50 cent Liberty Seated don't fair much better.
Except, this is the only one that doesn't appear to be cleaned:
