    Great coins! So nice to see the 1790s material with booming, original luster. Most of us are lucky to acquire even a lower grade circ. example of such coins. Thanks for sharing!

    #1 – I don’t care if she’s not original skin. I love her.
    #2 – She’s picturesque, that’s for sure. -My choice.
    #3 – Flamboyant. I bet she's a lustrous lady.
    #4 – Miss Originality.

    Thanks for sharing. I'm in room 317 at the local hospital. Upon seeing these coins I did a double back flip without thinking and should be out of traction soon.

    Was just thinking that. There has to be some impressive provenances for those.
