Sometimes you have a coin that you really didn’t appreciate until you started taking photos for a possible trade. But then you realize how nice the coin really is and come to the conclusion quickly that trading this coin is a bad idea…..don’t have the TrueView photos yet….but here are some quick iPhone photos….and a video link. CBH 1823 AU58+

My experience has also been that when I took a pic that I noticed some problem I didn’t notice before and I am glad to be rid of it.

That's a real beauty and the predecessor to the Red Book Ugly 3 variety (Overton 110a). Nice pics!
Pretty nice looking coin

I see why you'd like it., nice coin
There be gold in that +!
With a gold shield holder do you not already have a true View image????
Apparently not as I just verified your cert number and no image available.
Yes, but it hasn’t posted yet. I have had some coins back from PCGS over 20 days and still no photos yet. They must be majorly slammed.
@TurtleCat Ditto that is what I thought of.
I like your 1823 and tough to get the good pic on these. Always say I am not a photographer but found that the Morgan pic's to be about the easiest. When trying to take a pic of my 1823 or other it was a more difficult task. I suspect that TV will be good.
@Herb_T Don't know if you saw this thread but looks like about 1 month on the TV.

For many years, that would have been a 63. Jokingly referred to as an AU-63. I don't know when they tightened the standard back up, but that's a prime example.
That is a nice coin.... I do not sell my coins... but that one surely would not leave my collection. Cheers, RickO

Finally!
Still looks nice.
Do you think the TV is fairly close to what you see?

The TV makes Liberty look flat whereas when in your hand there is depth….my photos above I think show that…just my opinion.
I've bought coins after photographing them because I liked how the image came out. Your coin is a fantastic example.

Your pic shows the nice luster on the portrait better. The look around the stars on the trueview is awesome, though.

...and sometimes you have a coin that you really didn’t appreciate until after you sold it.

Well you got the + correct! How about AU58+.
Great bust!
