Attended a fairly crowded Schertz/San Antonio coin show on a rainy Saturday and managed to find these nifty items:

I've seen silver dollars in those old plastic bank holders and had to get these. the 79-S looks like a 65 and the 22 Peace has the some of the most unusual toning I've seen:




Next I found these 1950-D end roll toners for Rick Beale of .900 Fine Coins, another one of my favorite dealers. Him and his wife are about the nicest people you'll run into at a coin show, always good to see him at our local show. He submitted these himself from a roll the he managed to get. Originally I was going to get just one, but then decided I had to have both. The obverse toner is graded MS-65, the reverse MS-64 FBL:




Small coin shows can rule, especially on a rainy day!

    Good luck with the grading. Too bad the Peace dollar is a bit beat up. Still worth it though.

    That rev toned Frankie is awesome - and great photos (as usual for you)!

    I like the reverse of the Franklin, very pretty. I like them all pretty good. Sounds like a good show to attend.

    The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.
  • I like the Peace dollar. Nice colors.
