  1. Just got my 1911 MPL in hand. I can see why it is designated as BN on the label. I will have to say that the coin, at least the color, looks nothing like the True View in hand. So for those of you who are not fans of the True View, here is another to add to your ammunition.

     

    Here are some quick shots that I took, the color is much closer to my images, I would say exactly but I'm partial, maybe even a little darker.

     

    True View images are first then mine.

  2. I believe I have seen that Busty in person. If it's the one I remember the obverse has much more green than shown. Martin has excellent taste in coins and purchased many from Mark Feld. This may be one of those. I'll have to look through my photo archives, I may have some alternate pictures of this one. If I do, I'll forward them to you and see if they are acceptable to you.
