Sa-WEET flying eagles guys!

I like that Barber!

Nice wartime nickel set Amanda!

Fun medal (?) jgrinz.

NICE flying eagle!

Nice Jeff and nice SLQ!!!

First off, not too shabby a trade for a '09-S VDB.

Fun "with arrows" Amanda.

Nice looking Frankie Larry!

 

What makes it a Type 2?

 

The type refers to the eagle on the reverse. The Type 1 has a low relief eagle with 4 feathers to the left of the perch. All 1956 business strikes were type 1. The Type 2 has a high relief eagle with 3 feathers to the left of the perch. In 1956 roughly 95% of the proofs were type 2.

Fun coins!

Tom, that's a really PRETTY coin! It definitely floats my boat.

Lee, that is a fun coin!

Bill, that is a WOWSER!!!

COOL dimes everybody!

Cool trime, concept dollar, and Frankie.

EDITED TO ADD: The Frankie popped up between when I started this post and when I completed it. Obviously with the star it should have some extra cameo pop. I can't tell from the image, is the frost well spread or just on one side or another? Nice eagle.

VERY nice cent!!!

Oh man, Fatman! That Grant is sweet, but that CT. is WOW!!!

Those are really neat patterns! VERY cool!

Nice reverse of the Barber, and nice pattern.

NICE Bustie, Winston!!! I love that design.

Nice coin! Congratulations on the accomplishment! Do you have an image of the reverse?

Fun Bust Winston!

Nice coins one and all! The CT. really floats my boat.

Sweet coin Amanda. I Love the Reverse of the Arrows and Rays design.

Bruce, that's a mighty NICE lookin' 62!!!

Oh, and I just had a major pickup... for $8 at a local coin show today I bought a raw '54-D Frankie in 62-3 with nice light blue and amber album toning on the right side of the obverse. Sorry no picture.

EXCELLENT pickup AC!!! It must be kind of fun having the one and only!

... This one just got here today...

 

VERY pretty cent Mike!

Cool coins!

While I like the Charter Oak on the CT. commem, I quite like the eagle also, a nice art deco kind of look.
