    That is a beautiful coin.
    I love the look of these, but need coins larger in diameter to see well enough without glasses to enjoy!!

    Looks to be very nice, that's from someone who doesn't particularly like "small" coins.

    That is just a super coin. Did you ever stop to think about the collector that initially purchased the coin from the mint? The Civil War was just one year over and President Lincoln's assassination was also just one year removed. President Johnson was undertaking his ill advised "Swing Around the Circle" that laid the foundation for his ultimate impeachment. Reconstruction had started and blacks were starting to vote. Amongst all this political furor, a numismatist still managed to purchase your trime. I think it would be absolutely fascinating to talk with this (probably) man and discover how his collecting urge compared to ours...

    What a jewel, looks great, love the lighting of those pics, just need a little more zoom, so much better for me in my opinion than the glamour type shots that make coins look unreal

    Slammer, DCAM's are always special, especially if they are almost 150 years old. Special coins make for a great box of twenty. You can venture out of you series and have a lot of fun.

    I have a 209-year-old PR65 DCAM in my Box of 20, and love it.

    I'll bet my grubby little peasant fingers couldn't touch a Liteside screamer like that trime, though.

    Thanks guys.
    Yes I'm a proponent of the non-glamour shots that just look more natural.
    I would like to get some closeups done, eventually.

    lordmarc, I flat out LOVE your DCAM gilt 1/2. So very sweet!

    What a lovely trime.

    I've always liked these. I inherited one as a boy and I was fascinated by it. I couldn't afford to collect anything other than silver pocket change, buffaloes and wheaties. But this 3C piece was always a joy. Sadly it was stolen when we were burgled.
