This one (recently graded) for example.

A similar quality quarter from the same OGP set that the half dollar came from will have a Trueview post shortly. When It does I will add it to this thread.

Here is a photo of the quarter.

The half dollar graded MS66FBL and the quarter graded MS66+.

    That's a cool ANACS holder.

    I just finished looking at the 1958D half dollars (FBL and non FBL) shown on Coin Facts and compared them to my newly graded half dollar.

    To my surprise, the obverse and reverse of my half dollar are very similar in appearance (same mostly orange color, even color, even toning and minimal toning breaks), Only a few of the other pictured 1958D half dollars have "the look" of my coin.

    TTT.

    The obverse of the quarter has off the charts luster under the multi colored toning.

    @FlyingAl ... Those double mint sets in the special holders make for great display items. I really like that idea. Cheers, RickO
