MBA101 Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 All these purdy coins. Need some gold for balance. Picked these up right before Christmas. Both NGC MS-61's, both have nice toning, but you may not be able to tell from these picks too well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

123cents Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 1876 Philadelphia Trade Dollar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robec1347 Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 These are both NGC PF. The dime is a 64 and he half is a 62. I don't know, there seems to be an abundance of hairlines on both coins. I've had coins come back in bb's with the same or less amount of lines. I think it just reinforces a few posts I received about the slabbers not always being so accurate. But anyway, here they are.

comicAL Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 I recently picked up this Texas Commemorative coin. I like the toning on it. It is in a PCGS slab MS65 AAJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOILER78 Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 Super 76cc!! Here is a recent addition to the toned typeset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeg Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 Some super sweet additions posted by all! Congrat's!!!!! This one arrived yesterday for my Type Set. Pic taken with one 75W Halogen Lamp. The slab picture is with two 13W OTT-LITES. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toyonakataro Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 Boiler, that's the prettiest bust half dime I've ever seen so far. All I can say is WOW MS66? LeeG I like your walker,too. Whitch image is more accurate in person? I personally like the first image better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeg Posted December 31, 2006 Share Posted December 31, 2006 LeeG I like your walker,too. Whitch image is more accurate in person? I personally like the first image better. This is hard for me to put into words because I'm no expert on the nuances of the different lighting spectrums but both are correct. The Halogen brings out the colors of the coin better than the OTT-LITE's. The Halogen pic is a little darker than the acutal coin because it's such a bright light that it has alot of glare bouncing off the coin. I couldn't get the lamps of OTT-LITE's close enough to the coin to show the lustre and color better because of the glare it would add to the slab. Hopefully mgoodm3 or MikeInFl might be able to explain this better than I can? Or tell me I'm full of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOILER78 Posted December 31, 2006 Share Posted December 31, 2006 toyo- The half dime is a 64 and accurately graded as such. There are 2-3 ticks on the ovbverse that limit the grade but the eye appeal is outstanding and the coin is actually nicer in hand. Phil nailed the colors in the image but the luster glows through the toning creating tremendous eye appeal. Here is a new bust half from the same submission and presumably on it's way back from PCGS? Not nearly as nice as the half dime but technically the same grade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
123cents Posted December 31, 2006 Share Posted December 31, 2006 Mark, your bust half-dime and bust half are beautiful coins. I love the toning on both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.D. Posted December 31, 2006 Share Posted December 31, 2006 The first two of these Walkers are new and the third is a Walker that I've never posted on this forum before except showing my good friend Supertooth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
