***super nice toned BTW--newp***

SeattleSlammer

Picked up this exceptionally attractive BTW from forum member jmj3esq ...thanks Joe...it is gorgeous! So tough to find attractively toned BTWs...often they're mercilessly dipped or they have dark and mottled tones or they have nuclear colors that make me scratch my chin. This one has a super natural and eye popping look to it....vibrant rim colors fade into a mellow pink center on the obverse; same vibrant rim colors on the reverse fade into pastel green and then white in the center. Super luster that makes the colors glisten. Absolutely no distractions. BTW rarely looks so good.

Thanks Goldbully....that downsized pic is pretty good....but the high-def large PCGS true-view really does the best job of capturing the color/luster.

Being a lover of the BTW and C/W commems I'm a gonna guess it's a 66. By the way, Beautiful BTW.

64.....there are some small marks on the cheek and neck....you can see them better in the large high-def pic (see link)....still, I think 64 is pretty tough....

I have seen some 66's out there in PCGS slabs of late that don't look as nice as your coin. These had porosity on the cheeks and some dings. I really wouldn't have wanted them. Now your coin I would love to own.

Im gald you love it! I miss it already.

The obverse is properly graded at MS64. The reverse I would grade MS66. Since the obverse is not so bad it could go MS65 any day. Unfortunately with this date there isnt a whole lot of price difference between a MS64 and MS65.

I have more where that came from. Check out my registry set in the link below. Even though none of them are for sale.
