  Thanks LeeG for a very informative thread. I especially like it when you include information that is not written in books.
  
  Here is a blast white example of the Alabama. The very large pictures point out ALL the tiny ticks, especially on the face. In the future, I will post my heavily toned example which has the same grade. The toning hides most of the tiny ticks.

  Thanks Lee . . . . mine MS64 PCGS. Seems typical with a weak strike on the eagle's breast . . .

  Another great job Lee!
  
  The Alabama was Laura Fraser's first coin design therefore making the Alabama the first US Coin designed by a women. Another cool first.

  This Alabama 2x2 has outstanding colors and luster under the toning. The blue just jumps out. Sorry my scans do not show either well.
