Another one of my favorites - I got this one at the Biloxi Coin Show in early 1997. (No, it wasn't cheap; in fact I had to borrow from a friend to get it!) It's smooth with all legends very bold. It's also a lettered edge; in 1795 500,000+ coins were of the plain edge (thin planchet) variety, and just 37,000 were of the lettered edge (thick planchet) variety. The edge lettering should read ONE HUNDERED FOR A DOLLAR. The odd thing about this coin is that some of the edge lettering is doubled; on my specimen it reads something like this: ONE HUNDRED FORFOR A A DOLLAR R. Strange early error! I didn't notice this (it wasn't advertised as such) until I got home that night.

The most common variety of the plain edge 1795 - I got this one because of the coin's condition - a nice way above average Fine. I got it from a fixed price list. A nice complement to the 1795 Lettered Edge pictured above.

A tougher 1795 variety at R3+ that I had been trying to acquire for some time. A few years before this one came up I was high bidder on a nice one on eBay until getting outbid at the last moment. This one was lot #321 in the EAC '03 auction, which I attended personally. This specimen is a later die state with "17" weak and lots of reverse swelling.

The second most common variety of the plain edge 1795. I got this one from Heritage's Online Auction in 2001. I cracked it out of an ANACS slab marked VG8. A very common variety, but seemingly difficult to find nice.
