I had the pleasure of meeting both Coinlieutenant and his beautiful wife at my table today in Baltimore.
Happy birthday to a great guy and very knowledgeable collector.

Stuart That is a great pic it looks like the coin is right in my hand, you can even see the dried out surface devoid of a lot of oils. Did you take the picture and if so what did you use?

Hi Christos: Thanks very much for your above quoted post. In reply, the following 1826 CBH photos that you admired, were the original Heritage Auction Archival Photos that I discovered via research after purchasing the coin from another dealer.
The following 1826 CBH Forum Thread contains additional digital images that I recently took of the coin in both normal and reflected light to depict the Semi-Prooflike reflective fields and contrasting satiny devices.
