Thought I’d share this new acquisition. Feel free to post any old US gold — they’re great to see!

Tonedeaf is a nickname given to me in reference to my guitar playing ability.
This one is the Tripled Die Obverse in MS-63
Gorgeous gold!

Never a slave to one plastic brand will I ever be.

I dig the look of the triple obverse die but also am assuming it isn not rare since I have not really heard anything about it before. Still very cool to view btw.
Wow
I love the old NGC slab.
Nice gold coins.
I shouldn't be looking at these. It might trigger a compulsion. I must resist.....

My collecting “Pride & Joy” is my PCGS Registry Dansco 7070 Set:

I can easily see the doubling on the “8”, “5”, and “2” without a loupe.
Who doesn’t like Double Eagles
Have this one handy to show... Cheers, RickO
@jwitten
Always liked that 1914 with such a cool look.
MS64+ CAC. I bought it as a 64 CAC and got the half point bump on a Reconsideration submission.
Nothing is as expensive as free money.
Excellent coins!

OGH
All nice coins.
Seems close to the same time period and a NEWP!
Just another common ‘28.

I’ll be looking for a 26-S soon.
Pete @BuffaloIronTail
Is this yours?
That’s on my bucket list for coins. Nice!
Thanks @satindollar
I’ve always just loved this coin. You’ll be very happy when you add one to your collection.
“Just another” and St. Gaudens don’t go into the same sentence.
Heck no. I probably couldn't even afford the slab its in.

Hands down the most beautiful American coin ever designed!.......IMO.

Fun fact
A common die crack on the 26 goes near the eagle's beak.
Called a "nest builder" because it looks like the eagle is carrying a piece of straw.
By coincidence, the one in my set has this die defect. (It doesn't change the value up or down)

Well played!
Do you have any photos of your set taken all together?
You can see my whole set at the ANA World's Fair of Money this August in Pittsburgh!

Ok cool
I’ll be there then. Looking forward to seeing the trophy case.
Here's another 1926 TDO.

@ Tonedeaf and others post triple die:
I have this and when I ask the answer was MD LOL. So it is TDO FS-101. I am ignorant because I have no information's and documentations on those coins. The last I saw as this it is an 1927. I will take out and post photos of. Thanks for info.
@ ifthevamzarockin, I find doubling also just in signature and was told me no is MD???. I question the answers but not contradict. I will go more deep on this.
