And now for something completely different...a NEWP

Finally got this coin today from the Superior pre-Long Beach auction and got some better pictures. At first I thought Superior was being ridiculously slow, but this morning I found the final notice in my PO Box (odd since I didn't get the first two). Anyway, here she is:

1917 Type 1 SLQ, PCGS AU-58FH

I rarely meet an SLQ I don't like. Very nice pickup. Just about perfect for the grade.

yumm!

Mmmm...T1 SLQ

Nothing like a little indecent exposure in your collection, eh?

Get some clothes on her. She looks cold.

Very nice!

That's a really nice Type 1, SLQ.

Nice coin. Has the look of a 63. Are we still allowed to talk coins here?

Another beautiful coin.

Based on the pictures you've posted, I think if you cracked out your entire collection it would immediately increase in value by 20%.

But I'm guessing you already knew that.

That's one of the more beautiful US coins IMHO!

<< <i>Are we still allowed to talk coins here? >>

Don't know. I'm trying, though. Hopefully the moderators won't smack me down for showing off my new coin. It's not like this is a coin forum or anything...

The curious thing is that the package from Superior was postmarked September 16. The package was marked as if they gave me notices in my P.O. box on 9/18 and 9/23, and were going to return to sender on 10/3. Yet this was the first notice I received in my box.
