So far I have not been able to capture the true color of the coin, which is much more choclate brown than what these images show.
I got this at the monthly coin show in Anaheim back in October....

Thanks for looking.......

    Wow - a beauty - I had the same problem with "chocolate color" photo until I changed from a black background to a white background - try it it might work for you too, although there is nothing wrong with that photo!

    Those are so impressive, especially in hand. Yours is a very nice example, Rhound, with very little wear and the inevitable rim dents.

    Wait a minute, that extra metal on the edge of the reverse from 9:00 to 1:00 isn't from rim damage, is it?

    I am no expert but I don't think it is rim damage either, looks more like metal flow, maybe a defective collar? Or something with the die
    itself. I'm not knowledgeable enough to be sure.....
