    Some tab tones are more exciting than others. Here's a pair I own, one of which I would not buy if I had to do it again because it's a drab and generally unappealing coin. The other is really well defined and lustrous with pleasing eye appeal.

    Hey Russ, the Columbian you posted looks great. But what's that on the reverse? It looks like a roller skate with sails. image
