Most definitely an awesome set of Ultra High Grade coins. Oh, and hands down the finest toned MPL Set.

<< <i>Heck yea I dig em all! Especially that 12' >>
The 12 is a monster and definately one of the most vibrant I have ever seen. The coin is just a tiny tick away from a 67.

Very well put!

<< <i>Where does one find such nice coins? I'd like to buy just one for my collection! >>
I might be able to help you
You can't have "just one".
Takes NINE to make you feel well fed, TEN makes you feel full.
Just out of curiosity, how would any of you compare (or rate) the very different kinds of toned beauty exemplified by my two extremely different (and yet both quite breathtaking) 1915 PR67BN MPLs?

I am not kidding,

I collect 20-slab, blue plastic PCGS coin boxes. To me, every empty box is like a beating heart
People come up sometimes, and ask me, G99G, are you kidding? And I answer them no, I am NOT KIDDING.
Every empty box?
C'mon!
the top one makes me think ms70
the bottom has a subtle natural look about it but i would think the scatter above liberty would of prevented 67

Here is an image I took of Richard's top pictured 1915 that shows the luster of this "blazer" a bit more.
<< <i>honestly...
the top one makes me think ms70 >>
You know, Ted, that top coin looks good to me. The coloration is just uneven enough, it's not too light, and it appears to really penetrate the metal, unlike MS70 jobs. No, that coin really tugs at my heart strings.

I have to say, I really love the ex Pete Miller coin. When I met him in Baltimore it was one of the first coin images he showed me of his collection, and I am sure it was very meaningful to him. It now adds such beauty to your collection. Nothing wrong with the other 15, or for that matter the Monster 1915 PR66RB you recently auctioned, but the top coin is my favorite!
Take care,
Jonathan
