I got it, a Bass Collection coin

 

Today FEDEX delivered my Bass Collection 1903 S $5 MS66. It is a stunning coin, so bright and lusterous, I feel it should be rechecked for a higher grade, but I bet that has been done at least once. I am going to put this on in the next show and do what I do best, show off. This one put a grin on my face, and along with a 1994 AGE $10 MS70, I can go to bed satisfied for the moment. My sagging Registry number was helped somewhat, but still more searching to do.

It has that nice air bubble in it. I bet you can move it around the case if you push on the case. This coin would look better in a new edge view case.

 

I own the 1964 25C PF70 W CAMEO that is in that type of case and has an air bubble but If I get it reholdered I think I will lose the W.

 

I kind of like the W on the case so I am stuck with the air bubble.

 

nice coin and good for you gold doesn't tarnish so the air will be of no consequence.
