Treeman Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 copper toning and Wheat's wheats... It's in an NGC 66 Br slab, and is very nicely toned. Looks tremendously better in hand, more blues and much more iridescence... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

illini420 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Don't think I ever posted this coin here... one of my favorite coin in my collection to look at. I have many coins worth much more, but this one is just so cool. I had the opportunity to go through 200-300 freshly graded 1909 VDB cents that had been put away for many years and I spent over an hour going through them picking out the most eye appealing examples. Bought around a dozen of them that day, but this one is my favorite: Alex in PA. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

copper toning Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 I am no indian expert but wasn't the cn notorious for incomplete strike? Either way I am a fan of strong strikes and I like this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hard Times Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 I am no indian expert but wasn't the cn notorious for incomplete strike? Either way I am a fan of strong strikes and I like this one. Thanks CT - yes the hard Ni alloy metal made for weak strikes and rapid die wear. This one is struck well despite being die state B where the die is cracked - see reverse bottom right side of the wreath, and there is a die break along the obverse rim at 7 O'Clock. That crack and the obverse die break are diagnostic for Snow 2's, which have an R5. Best, HT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
