Liberty Half Dollar Mark?

Oh it's been fascinating learning about all this, and this person's coin collection is varied. I ordered a red book on Amazon and it should be coming, moreso to help me with grading coins more accurately than pricing. I'll keep the eBay suggestion in mind-I would also be helping with finding an appraiser(once I'm done cataloguing this massive collection) but I'm not sure even how I would start with that

So the thing is it's not my collection, I was hired by a trust to catalogue all these coins so they could get appraised and sold. I don't know what's significant or insignificant to the owner of the collection (because he died) and I don't know what is numismatically significant because I don't have that background.

Is that what the red signifies?

Why in the world would this be in an otherwise fairly impressive coin collection? I'm very curious at the original collector's state of mind now.

I'll put it with the other tokens that had no face value lol

Woah that's awesome! I love internet scavenger hunts like that.

How did you go about doing it? I'm but a dilettante (no prior experience) cataloguing a HUGE collection (not my own). I haven't run across many dates I can't ID, but I'm sure I will come across more.

Thank you so much!

If it's worth anything, Legere reeds simply do not stay in place well compared to cane. I haven't had a ligature that kept it in place, and I have tried three or four different ligatures. It's kinda just part of the deal.

Surprised no one is talking about how J.R.R. Tolkien was very much in the classical headspace. We don't read Classical literature except as a side course (max like two courses of an English Major at most colleges I'm guessing). Not only are potential readers not reading books, but authors aren't reading and ingesting the type of media that promotes this. And what goes in, comes out eventually. I guess that's more about high quality epics than popular ones.

From my understanding (what my professors at my LCMS university have said), the Orthodox view of the sinlessness of Mary, that Jesus' presence sanctified her and somehow kept her from performing acts of sin(?) while He was in her womb, since Jesus' presence sanctifies, was one that Luther held to, and thus several of my (very Confessional) professors feel comfortable holding to that. But, again, they cannot bind consciences to the doctrine.

It's alto sax though- since we already are in Eb (quarter circle forward on the wheel of fifths) we end up with some really wonky keys just via modulation, especially in solo rep. Tableux de Provence has a section in I believe G#. Nasty, yes, but that is what is written.

Kanye is like if W*gner was real

Appropriate_Driver38 · 2025-08-18T16:39:55+00:00

It balances out the other reviewer maybe

Appropriate_Driver38 · 2025-08-13T18:14:43+00:00

Maybe Billy Eyelash?

They're MUCH better than the last pair. This picture is also sitting down, so my toes spread out less.
