The Quintessential "Perfect Gem" XF Coin Picture Thread

Of course, the ultimate is gem mint state coins, yet there is such an appeal to lightly circulated examples. This thread is dedicated to such coins.
When I sent in this Peace dollar, I knew it was an XF, and I had no problem spending the grading fees.
I love the hard-dove gray look and seek these out. These coins are somewhat challenging to locate, especially for some series.
I'd love to see your XF coins- raw or slabbed, XF40 or XF45s.
Thanks!

I have a few, and I agree the XF is a nice grade.

A gem XF sometimes looks better than beat up AU's, esp when they acquire that nice patina that hasn't been dipped off. NGC XF40, older gen holder.
I love that Queen Anne Crown!

I have only a few. The arrows & rays is pretty darn nice for XF. The classic quarter eagle has a really rich, old look to it.

How about an xf details.

I sold this one a few years ago.

A few favorites in no particular order:
It graded 40!
So did the Cap and Scale, but pretty sure the Seated $ got a 30 🤔
Nice. 👍
