We haven't had a good picture post in a long time!
I've seen praise heaped on AU-58 coins a lot recently, so share your imperfect beauties!

BTW, I quite like the Barber [whoops, that's a quarter, isn't it] in your post.
However, this one is the ultimate 58 (not mine, but currently on Ebay):

<< <i>IMO, that quarter isn't a 58. >>
They're both quarters.
But I assume you mean the Seated. You may be right....but my experience has been that seated quarters are often mushy, and my pic isn't the greatest either. I'd buy it again for the price I paid.

Oops. Yes, left the word "seated" out, but edited the post and fixed it (mentioning that here, so people don't think you're crazy

I'm sorry Baily but that coin doesn't look green at all.

You know I love this grade so here you go. All the 58's I have that are photographed.

I think I'd still be a happy collector even if there were ONLY AU-58's!
I just checked my database....Of the 168 slabbed coins I own, 16 are graded AU-58, and 7 are graded AU-55.
Just love that Denver gold.

All these 58's I see - I don't know why I pay higher prices for the higher grades!!! The 58's look awesome! They get my respect.

Lloyd,
I couldn't agree with you more! "Most Bang For The Buck"!
Was ANACS AU55 (Now In DANSCO 7070)
A couple more 58's
My love for the AU-58 grade has been greatly strengthened by the fabulous coins shown on this thread. I would be remiss if I did not pay particular homage to those posted by Baley and coinlieutenant. WOW! Those are some of the nicest coins I have seen. Thank you, gentlemen, for sharing those beautiful images.
Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.
Apropos of the coin posse/aka caca: "The longer he spoke of his honor, the tighter I held to my purse."
Here's a few I already have loaded;
