Here it is...
The picture in the middle is the picture from the E-Bay auction. The coin look much better than the scan. the toning on the outer ring is blueish!

It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

    It's ok, but I still like bright white ones from origional rolls. I've never seen a MS66 FBL that was brilliant white. 1955 is a tough date to find white. Have you noticed the price jump between a dark mint set toned 1955 MS65 FBL and a white one? It's huge.

    looks solid Marty enough MadMarty. Thanx for posting the pic, helps me gauge a little on how my Three mint set pieces might do. How is the luster?
