PCGS got my order straightened out and as usual, Phil "nailed" the images!!!

It was a rather circuitous, winding road to get this order completed and correctly encapsulated, but the results posted this evening. As expected, our resident shutterbug-par-excellance, Phil Arnold, nailed the TrueView images. I know lots of our membership holds the SBA$ with utter disdain, but when they look like this I hope it opens your minds up a little. These are Dollars I have cherry-picked from our little shop, spending years in Dansco and Little coin folders. The Proofs tend to tone nicely in the Littleton and the Mint State coins in the Dansco.

The 1967 Kennedy Half-Dollar is a coin I plucked from a bulk lot of 40%'ers we bought, most likely an end roll coin that was dumped into the bucket.

Thanks and enjoy.

Al H.

    Ya, and the guy who picked out the coins did not do so bad either. . .

    Never took you for a closet SBA guy. What else should we know about you? :)

    Dansco and Littleton albums.

    Nice little grouping @keets! I particularly like the 1980-S proof.

    Kind regards,

    TruViews are just outstanding photographic records of coins.... Sure, there are great coin photographers on this forum... actually, incredible photographers.... That being said, the TruView just provides a sense of 'legitimacy' to a coin.... not sure how else to describe it...and the detail is always superb. Cheers, RickO

    There are those who think that Phil ( @PCGSPhoto ) has a really nice set-up and his imaging is among the best...and you can count me among them.
