New BQ, just arrived.

 

Best, HT

 

Beautiful coin! Now the question is, what am I missing? That looks better than VF35 to my eyes.

 

Seeing in hand I simply cannot see why this is not a 40 or 45. It has the wear of a higher grade, no major hits, and cartwheel luster when rotating under the light. It is at CAC right now, so if it does not bean then it is clear I missing something.

 

Best, HT

Not the greatest picture, but just picked up this tough date toner from Northeast:

 

1924-S PCGS MS-62

 

Looking forward to sending it, with others, to Todd for a better shot.

Got this as a WTF purchase. I was looking through a Mercury album in a B&M and picked out several nicely toned MS 1935 - 1945 Mercurys. Even though this 1929-S wasn't from the timeframe I was interested in, and was heavily circulated, I still liked how it looked and got it as a throw in. Bob Campbell imaged it, and I think he did an excellent job.

Bought this recently for my mint set. The rev has a darkish area that I'm not super fond of but the obv is pleasing to me and I do like the sharp and very strong (to me anyway) strike.

Picked this up last night for my Type Set. I believe it's a slider. Slight rubs on the high points, still has flow lines (that I could see when blowing up the image) and minimal distracting contact marks.
