texasrichard Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Sweet looking Lincoln and Ike ! Tom - When I said tide me over, I didn't mean to imply that the $20 gold was an insignificant purchase for me. In fact, it is one of the more expensive coins I've ever bought (I'm not a big money player). That said though, the $20 gold in AU for that year is available; much more available than the '53 no arrows quarter. I had saved up some money to get the quarter and took a shot at a cleaned one that was in the recent HA sale. My bid fell short so instead I decided to put the money into the $20 gold. My 1853 set is still coming along pretty good, and hopefully some day I can complete it. It is a much more difficult task than I anticipated when I started. Thanks for the comments everyone.

bsshog40 Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 (edited) Man Rey, I have never seen toning like that on a coin. I couldn't even begin to guess. Nice 96'? P there Rey. I actually like the toning. Even if it is AT, it's different!! Edited July 17, 2007 by bsshog40 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dooly Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 (edited) Looks like gas flowing over the coin rey Had a closer look at the coins in the set and the Dime's mint mark looks a bit Dubbled to me !

Revenant Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 (edited) My most recent at the moment is this 1976. I haven't even gotten it in the mail yet but it should be here in another day or so. I could have gone for a slightly better grade but I got a nice deal on the coin and I was after it for a type coin, not to be an ultra-nice coin for a some major set I'm building. If I ever decide to seriously build an Ike set I'll probably replace it with a MS 65/66. Edited July 18, 2007 by Revenant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinstonWare Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 I agree that is a nice Ike there. It appears to have a nice golden hue. I wouldn’t dismiss it for a coin a grade or two higher - JMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeg Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 Lee, this was a direct sale from a PCGS board member. Might it be that you thought it was a different coin? Probably so. Very similar to one I saw. Still "Very Nice"!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revenant Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 I agree that is a nice Ike there. It appears to have a nice golden hue. I wouldn’t dismiss it for a coin a grade or two higher - JMHO. Thanks. It does indeed have a nice golden hue. I'm used to pictures and lighting conditions lieing to me though so I wasn't going to count that in the coin's favor until I saw the coin itself (I was using the seller's image). That coloring does give it a kinda unique look for an Ike though the light has to hit it just right before it'll pop out at you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revenant Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 (edited) I guess I would put that Morgan at about a MS63, though I am no expert Edited July 21, 2007 by Revenant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
