2500 post give-away thread. Simple: Just post a nice coin

Well I'm approaching 2500 posts and according to the PCGS forum title under our icon image, I'll be going from a "Collector" to an "Expert Collector"imageimage
Just post a coin that you think is nice, super nice, or "the bomb!", and I'll pick 10 of my personal favorites and draw one from a hat. Post as many beauties as you like, and the winner will receive $25 bucks (to spend on coin suppliesimage).
I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of the members of this forum for making my time here so enjoyable, entertaining, and educational. I've been here for almost a year now, and have enjoyed it very much.image
image...There's always time for coin collecting. image

    Can I post my 55/55 DDO obverse from a few days ago?
    If not, I will try to get a better pic of one of my "Coinguy1" Proof IHC (toned, of course)

    Here's one I just picked up in B'more yesterday. The darker surfaces actually have a nice blueish tinge to them, especially on the reverse where this baby sat in an album obviously for years.

  • Very cool. This is my second time even replying on the board. I am a new coin collector and have no idea what I am doing. I am having fun though. This board has been very enlightening.

    I hope there are 2500 more posts to come from you, I look forward to them.

    Well, here is one of my finds and thanks for the chance at another coin to add to my collection.
