It's going to take a coin with nice eye appeal to compete with those busty's and I think I got one in the mail you guys might like. Picked this one up from Northeast Numis of all places :banana:

 

 

This one has booming luster :acclaim:

and here's a color shot of the obverse that's kinda bleached out due to the way I had to image the shot....

Then I got this 1961 Proof set in this strange old aftermarket holder hm

The quarter has some nice burgundy toning and the nickel is completely blue which is common,

first off, that's a great quarter. I think Tom would like this one very much.

I love the old fatty holder, coins look so much nicer in them for some reason.

Your proof set looks like they should all be holdered.

Dangit Elbesaar I had my eye on that 1897. (tsk) So much for my sniping :frustrated: I am beginning a birth year for my grandmother. Nice catch :grin:
