Congratulations mate it would be good to see a photo of it

[serial]

I no longer own it as it didnt fit in with my collection and it needed work that I didn't feel qualified to give it



wasn't bad for $10

[ausjack]

mate I'll say, well done :good:

Unbelievable to think you got it out of a bulk lot.My best effort is a 1920 dot over
top scroll penny and your find is so much better especially in that condition,I reckon
it would grade at PCGS XF40 and subsequently be worth about $2000

I actually sold it for $1400
I was happy with that

When I'm noodling I keep an eye out for any coins in much better than usual, circulated condition for their age. Amazing the earlier years that sometimes turn up, obviously very little circulated. My idea is to make up good sets of circulated coins for posterity (or maybe sell on eBay if I duplicate them).
Here is a sample of some $1 coins picked up in the last week. A couple of NCLT included.
These are all minimal wear, negligible marking and nice colour -the darkest looking ones are actually the brightest (don't know why the scanner does that).

All nice finds Jeff!

Picked this one up the other day, hopefully it grades up well and will go into my set.
