Description
I am still in the process of liquidating my coin collection of over 40 years.This auction will be a run of Large Cents from one of my albums. The run of 18 begins with an 1812 Classic Head and goes to the end in 1856.
There are a few varieties which I noted on the holder.
Also, I described any issue that the coin has on the holder.
In the early part of the series, many of the planchets were porous as many of them came over in barrels from other countries. If they got saltwater in the barrels, which wasn't uncommon, it created this condition.
Around the 1840's this problem seemed to have ended, as well as the coins began to be minted with steam presses as opposed to the old screw press method.
I will list these coins as true auction with a starting price below current Greysheet bid..
My shipping is .00 via USPS First Class no matter how many you win, so it's a good opportunity to fill a lot of spots in your set.
Please ask any questions before bidding and good luck!
