Just in from the dreded Teletrade. Looks a lot better than it did on teletrade. Sure wish the 6 that I won were Walkers. grin.gif (supertooth, how about that color)

Is that a vein popping out on Abe's forehead?

 

I'm hoping to post something here other than comments about veins and such after next month's auctions. thumbsup2.gif

Nic-A-Date has long been used to "bring out" the date on nickels that have been extensively circulated to the point of being dateless (like Chad). devil.gif It is a dilute acid that etches the surrounding metal and allows a ghost or shadow image of the date to become visible. The area around the date also becomes darkened and these pieces are easy to spot. I do not know if it would work well on silver, but there is truly no reason to do that to a coin such as the Peace dollar because the novelty of the piece would be shot if it were mistreated in that way.

Oh man Chad is getting killed this weekend. nopityA.gif

 

Yeah this just a nice smooth piece to flip through my fingers. I'll just tell everyone it's a '28.

I'm starting my own new eBay account tomorrow, and never telling any of you SOB's what it is! God!

 

Chad Look at the bright side of things. You have a coin that will be coming to you soon so you can photo. You should have as much as the rest of the guys have so far.
