I was able to pry that one loose from Kryptonitecomics. He is an excellent Ferengi - he made an obscene profit. image

    It would look good on a purple background.

    Working on the weekend and thought I would check out the forums for a few minutes.

    I have a few of questions for you Russ:

    #1 - In looking at the picture I do not see any RB (red or brown), Whats up with that?; and

    #2 - Why are you wasting your time and effort on a proof coins that is not a Cameo or Deep Cameo?

    #3- Does the reverse have strike doubling or double die on the E and N in CENT or is it merely the picture that give the appearance of some form of doubling?

    1. There is red floating about. As for brown, a solid bright blue - or any color other than red - copper can receive the brown designation. The coin does not even need to have any brown at all. It's a catchall since they don't have a color designation for every possible color and/or combination of colors.

    2. Because it's cool looking.

    3. No doubling.
