No commentary from me on this one, other than to say, I USUALLY don't care much about these coins but .......

    Not too many of proof coins like that around. Most have been dipped and are all white, that is one nice quarter.

    I expect TomB to slobber a little too. It's a beauty.

    I know one thing.That shot does not come close to doing the coin justice.The colors are not that drab in person I,m sure.You have to know what your looking at.Like everyone that posted before me here.They know its a great coin.
    Not all here might agree though based on that scan.You just don`t see any luster that you know has got to be there.

    Hey, I like that one. Nice original crusty look to it. Is it for sale on your site?

    Nor do the details on the wings look like proofs do now.

    Sorry Mr.Feld.I,m just bashing the photo,not the coin.The shots make the coin look flat and lifeless.
    If not for the rich toneing it might look like a dud.Sorry.Its the camera setup I guess is waht I,m complaining about.
