Coins are Neato!

I think these will be my new absolute look every day and and toss it in the coffin ones.
I’m pretty happy with each and every one of them

My two favorite so-called dollars. One gilt and the other silver.

Next is a recent pickup ad I think ((hope) it’s one of the best examples around of
a half eagle kettle token gilt.

And the last 3 are gold overstrikes from Ron Landis using the 1796 dies.

I just love this example. Notice how the light blue fields even fill in the loops of the "B" and "R" with the elevated portions of LIBERTY colored in a medium shade of russet.
Just a few hours before I saw this thread last night, I was showing this just-filled PCGS virtual album page to a colleague and saying, "this is what calms me..."

Just think, Fernando Tatis can purchase the entire mintage of these..........
That is not possible. I have one and it's not for sale.

My 1916 Matte Proof Buff calms me down and makes me happy.
Love this one. TurtleCat - that vintage mint video was great too.

If I had a blue toned coin I would post it.
First off, NO WAY that is only an MS63.
Secondly, NO WAY CAC didn't sticker that one.

This one is sorta blue, too. It also calms me. Even makes me happy.
A recent newp.

I’m sorry, that just makes me sad to see them melting all those hi reliefs because they wouldn’t stack correctly. 🤔

How is that coin only a MS63?

This frosty meeting of the Ben Franklin club is calming.
As is this frosty meeting of the JFK club.
However the meeting of the toned WLH club is not, due to a lack of more than one member.
Looking through rolls, or bulk calms me.

Kennedys are my quest...
