Can't wait to see them in hand! My type set seems to be shaping up to include a proof and a bussiness strike of every denomination I like so this took care of new ones for all 3 series.
The indian, although not scarce, is a date that I can afford in 65 red and it is my first venture into indian land.
The proof two center I think is great because there were only 600 minted! I also really enjoy the odd face value of these guys. I will pobably eventually upgrade to a "red" example once I know more about the qualities of red proof copper.
The merc is a high grade example of a better date proof of this series. I like the gold toning on that one! (I thik I will eventually complete the proof mercs. I like that there are only 7 or so coins in the series!
I also enjoy the really rainbow toned ones though I need to see more in my hand first.
Anyway, here are the (heritage) pics.
