New addition

Working on a set of proof Indian cents in PCGS 65 brown CAC with pretty color. Green is my target color in that grade and not so easily done but I’ll have fun with it. I must say that imaging proof copper behind plastic is without question the toughest pick up the beautiful color the coin possesses in its true light. I’m more than sure it cannot be done properly. Without the plastic it’d be a breeze. Here is my latest addition along with another pretty proof I also picked up not so long ago.
Thanks for looking and comments are always welcome.
Happy hunting, Joe

Very fun set and nice coins!
In regards to imaging proofs in slabs, I have all but given up trying and use Phil and his team for those. Nice Indians!
Very attractive!

Beautiful coin. I just noticed: does 'BN' stand for brown or 'bean'?

Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......
A very nice batch of coin
Those are some great-looking coins. I don't usually consider Indian Head cents all that attractive, but these are quite lovely.
Beauties! Nice pickups.
@crazyhounddog ... I am really impressed with your ability to bring out those colors in a photograph....I can see the pastels, which I would have thought would have been lost in lighting needed for such pictures. Well done... Cheers, RickO
Congrats, Joe. Wow, some beautiful examples and great photographs. Love them both. Thanks for sharing.

Cool pickup. Green is usually a bad thing on copper, but not like this!
Here's a recent 1902 I picked up.
Beautiful, Joe!!!

Gonna be tough finding the c/n proofs with any green that's not pvc damage.
Cool set so far.

I just can't keep my eyes off of your 1883 Joe, it's just a thing of beauty.
The second set of images of the 1883 are what's floating my copper boat.
Wow!
Thank you to all for the kind words.
Happy hunting, Joe
I think Hydrant said it best.....Wow! Yep...incredibly beautiful....and kind of stunning shades of green!

Landon, have some patience, buddy. It’s a forum, not a text message exchange.

He’s not ignoring you. He’s a grown man with other things to do. He’ll get back to you when he can. Have some patience. If you’re worried, send him a PM with an apology and WAIT for a response.
