Just got back from a week in Hong Kong playing with coins over there. Got home and had a couple coins waiting for me. The 1884 has a some nice color for a PL toner. Probably a little dark for some. The 1880-S seems close to a DMPL but some haze probably holds it back from getting it. Welcome any thoughts on these addition to the growing DMPL/PL stash.

    I like the 84-O. Is the 84-P really PL? The photos don't look like it. Maybe you're just trying to catch the color?

    I thought the 2nd images show the PL a little more soI included them. It is PL for sure and I was more interested in getting the color than the PL.

    The rainbow color on the 84 PL is sweet. I also like the die polishing on the reverse of the 80-S DMPL.

    What type of coins were you playing with in Hong Kong?

    Nice pair of 84's. The 84-O is my favorite of the group. The strike is a tad light (O-mint) so thats fine. It's that frosted contrast and mild golden hue that please my eye.
    Good pics as always and thanks for posting,

    Guess I need a bigger monitor.
    The 84O is nice n frosty but a 2. Appears to be a lock for at least a 3.
