Dropped it on a cushion by the window and took the shot.

    Wow...Ole' Mr. Redfield didn't use a scoop shovel on that one. And to think it was dropped down a coal chute in the basement of this house. Very, very Nice.

    I think you are correct CascadeChris...Here is what a 1890-S Redfield Scoop Shovel Morgan looks like:

    That's a snazzy one alright! Definitely worth a giant

    Striking toning.
    I like that NGC will grade them in the Paramount holder.
    And it's a 00-S.
    You just nailed a cold trifecta!

    Gorgeous!

    That's a great looking coin.

  • rickoricko Posts: 98,724 ✭✭✭✭✭

    That red, leatherette background really sets it off..... not a fan of the tarnish though... Cheers, RickO

    Beautiful coin! And the S8 picture is very impressive.

  • Wabbit2313Wabbit2313 Posts: 7,268 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Thanks for the nice comments.

    As far as the S8, so far so good. I was holding the phone in my hand when I took the pics. Up close focusing is amazing. Phone also sounds great, something I could not say about my iPhone's, at least in this area. They have also found a way to do finger print scanning that works. It is now on the back of the phone.

    That is absolutely gorgeous!

  • ashelandasheland Posts: 23,771 ✭✭✭✭✭

    That certainly deserves a sticker:

    :D

    Nice coin . I won't comment on images, because I use a scope and can take full shots like this .

    My images stink, but for a point and shoot shot on my phone, it does the job.

  • JimnightJimnight Posts: 10,846 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Very nice

  • davewesendavewesen Posts: 6,680 ✭✭✭✭✭

    That is a very nice coin now - I wonder what another 30 years in that slab will bring?

    I ask because I first noticed NGCs disclaimer about their guarantee on your coin.

    Right. It has always been that way for Redfield's. A few years ago, NGC starting guaranteeing the grade on GSA's, but did not add Redfield's to that list.

    Hey now, I like everything about that one. The grade, the pedigree, the date/mm and that color is stunning and unique.

    Love that green!! And the clean frosty centers are beautiful. Congrats!!

    Nice coin! I will say I love the camera in the S8, compared to my old S5. It takes much better images for sure.
