    He made a mistake by entering a web page URL to an image link instead of the image itself.

    These things are beginning to look kinda common! image

    Funny thing is, I think there were about five of these 54's that broke as a group about twenty years ago. They all had the same color, and all graded at least 64. Anyone remember the details?

    Guys,

    I'm very disappointed with everyone here helping TDN figure this out. I was trying to squeeze one of these dollars from him for the help...

    BTW, Shylock, from the one pic I've seen so far, you did a great job imaging his maxed out, A/T coins in their final holders. image

    Maxed out? AT? Dingus? It's not good practice for the "help" to make fun of the boss. image

    That is one sweet toned dollar however. Yumm. Even if it a free
    billboard for Akers.

    Andy, you are refering to "the 5 sisters," an article that appeared in the Gobrecht Journal many years ago. If you want I can summarize it. But to suffice to say they were mostly all mint state coins.

    My "I let it get away coin" was an 1854 dollar in gem from the 1976 New York ANA sale. I've never seen the coin since but as I recall, it was flawless except for a single reed mark in the obv field. I was intent on buying it any price but backed out when the "fierce" bidding took it to all of $3000! More than likely it wouldn't measure up after all these years but I seem to remember it as a raving superb gem. Anyone have any history on this one? It mostly untoned in the centers with some peripheral toning. I think there was a faint trace of a fingerprint on it too. I think about that coin quite often when seated dollars come up.

    Yeah - I was meaning to comment on those AT'd dollars - I once made the mistake of refering to TDN as "Toned" DollarNut - maybe I should have added an "A" (as in Awesome) image

    Was a privilege just to see TDN's coins, as well as his nice city of Spokane. Just wish I had more time to appreciate his collection while I was there. As is usually the case due to time constraints, I got to know the coins better working with the photos after the fact.

    Among the slew of rarities was the 1799 dollar he posted in this thread which was discussed earlier this year on this forum post. Amazing coin, fingerprints and all, that really grows on you. The combination of luster, strike, thick toning in some areas and none in others makes it one of the most complex and original looking silver coins I'd ever seen. You really do have to see it in person, its many surface textures defy any one camera/lighting setting you choose.

    Thanks for the great time TDN! And special thanks to Lakesammman for going out of his way during a busy week to spend a day with us.

    Shylock -- your imaging is simply amazing. I know these coins, so I know how well your imaging captured these coins complexity. image

    TDN -- I wonder what Iwog would say about your coins? image You should consider having a printed portfolio of your coins, with excellent images and nice write-ups. Any color printer will suffice (but laser is best), as long as you use the correct paper and settings.

    Agree with Shylock re: the 1799 dollar. Pictures just don't do it justice - much nicer with coin in hand. Thanks to both TDN AND Shylock for letting me get in the way during the photo shoot.image

    I would think a good dipping would get rid of the fingerprint on the 1799 dollar. Just think how pretty it would look if it were blast white. imageimage

    WOW! these are great pics. Great coins too, of course.. That 1899 is great, totally original toning over perfect surfaces. Did you happen to see Adam Eckfeld's fingerprint too?

    WOW.

    That is one gorgeous Trade dollar, and possibly the first time I have ever seen textile toning that I actually liked.
