Some other dinner guests this week ... big pictures

I posted earlier about an Oregon Commem (shown again here); Thanks for the replies image

I just bought a new camera a few weeks ago, and brought home some coins for dinner this week to meet the new camera. Here's some snaps of a few of the halves that came home for a visit.

Oh ... and if you'd like to play guess the grade, I'll get back on tonight before I pick up my son from the game.

That's all for now ... takes a while to crop and resize them ... hope you all enjoy! image

    Wow, beautiful coins. I love the look of that seated half. Let's see, guess the grade...

    I think the bust half is a 55, the seated half a 58, and the Bay Bridge a 65. The Grant and the Oregon are still loading and besides I'm no good at those, so no guess there.

    Nice coins, one way or the other.

    great coins and picsimage
    Not much of a grader so my guess is 2 points higher on each from previous guesserimage

    The reverse of the Grant is such a nice design...Got to get one of those somewhere/somehow. Someone posted a toner of one a while back in hues of fall color toning and can't forget that one.

    okay Mira' ... I made the Bust Half ... though it was a 53 - shot 55 ... came back a 50 ... oh well, still very nice ... the Seated is a 58 (you are correct! image) ... the Bay Bridge and Oregon are 66's in old NGC brick's (I bought them from the same collection about 11 + years ago) ... and the Grant ... well it's in an OGH ... also purchased about 11 years ago ... and it's a 62
