United States, Indian Head, Cent, 1862. United States. Indian Head Cent, 1862. Krause KM# 90. Copper-nickel. Diameter 19mm, 14.67 grams. Coin turn. PGCS MS 63 (#12358329).
 
United States, Morgan, Dollar, 1900-O. United States. Morgan Dollar, 1900-O. Krause KM# 110. Silver, 900 Fine. Diameter 38.1mm, 26.73 grams. This coin started me on my coin quest. My dad had saved this coin; several years after he died, mom let my brother and me divide up his coins. This is a very sentimental coin to me, when I look at it, I think of dad. Coin turn. PGCS G 6 (#22110715), Yes, I realize this coin isn't really graded material. I wanted to save it in dad's memory. I wish now I had held off on the grading until I could have gotten the provenance on it.

Improperly Cleaned (#2521593-001), This is the only coin (or medal) I own where I've disagreed with NGC. Their notation is improperly cleaned, and I can't see it. I look for the parallel hairlines and can't really find any that indicate cleaning. Possibly they have other tests, but I've saw other coins with more indication, but have been graded. Oh well.
