  1. I kinda like it, but believe the grade font is too large and competes with the coin images. I also would downsize the sticker and put it with the grade to organize that information together. Bottom line, the coin should dominate the eye, not the grading info which really should be a footnote, if revealed at all (IMHO).

     

    I agree. Might even experiment with opacity with the font. 70-80% opacity might look less imposing.

     

    Just wrangled this from Winged Liberty. MS65BN. There is a ton of luster that doesn't show with the TrueView.

  2. ( I was the "Old Guy" at the table )... :o

     

     

    Since we share the same birthday (both day and year), I was the "Old Guy" on the other side of the counter.

     

    The coin I left behind was just a trinket. I just didn't want to go home empty handed. I did tell him to charge me the $3 he initially discounted for me, but no go. Next time I'll bring an old fashioned check. :D

  3. Folks,

    I am thinking this is really an IHC and a lincoln penny thread, not really a 'copper' thread. Each time I have posted lovely COPPERS that are not of those two categories, no comments, pos or neg, and it appears then, no interest at all beyond the aforementioned types of coppers. So if this is really a copper thread, it would seem there should be some appreciation or negative comments towards these lovely COPPERS that do not fit into the categories above. Oh well I will just keep posting and maybe some will appreciate them and look at our threads on Conder, HT, and Merchant tokes with interest..... (shrug)

     

     

    I am afraid I have neglected to comment on a bunch of posts. Certainly not meant to slight any coin or medal. I think there are probably more posts that don't get commented on than do.

     

    Looking through the thread there is a good variety copper. I think Indian's and Lincoln's have a few more simply because they are more plentiful. Most collectors probably started off with collecting Lincoln's.

     

    I love your tokens and the history behind them. Keep posting them.
