Newp, 1913-S type 1 clashed & plowing through a rainbow...

I just picked this one up and thought I would show it off a bit. This 13-S type 1 is just gorgeous and very lustrous, heavy clashing, and has the apperance the Buffalo is plowing through a rainbow. The strike is really bold on this S type 1 and is most always a make or break issue on the grade. Thanks for looking at this pretty nice find....Joe

    This one was a bin on the bay. It was there about 20 minutes before I saw it. I'm getting slow in my old age. I feel as though I stole this one, but wasn't sure till I received it today. I'm happyimage

    The peripheral rainbow toning really draws the eye but the heavy clash marks are spectacular! I take it that's a die crack coming off the Indian's nose. No wonder after the dies smacked together sans planchet.

    As always, you found the eye candy again. I agree, being a raw coin, it probably flew under the radar.

    I'm not a big fan of toning but even I have to admit that is one beautiful coin. I bet even Ricko would like that coin.

    Phenomenal Strike. Very slight weakness on the "TY" of Liberty and on the Head of the Buffalo in front of the horn.An NGC MS66 Star? PCGS might "Genuine" that coin now-
    AT or Questionable Toning-the Sniffer Barks again. IMO,a nice find.

    Wow! Great strike AND great luster. Type 1's from San Francisco don't usually look this good.
