    I like it a lot

    Pretty coin, but I can't get past all those marks on her cheek. If a Mercury Dime had half those it wouldn't get MS60.

    Not really looking for much these days but if I were, it might be a toner. :smile:

    I just bought the 3rd sister. It was for sale on ebay as a BIN for quite some time. Finally decided to pull the trigger.

    That is a nice looking 1896 dollar. I have always had a soft spot for that date because of its links to William Jennings Bryan's "silver crusade" campaign. It goes along with items like these.

    Here is a Spaulding comparitive dollat. This is unusual because most of them were issued by Gorham.

    Real attractive old dollar

    Curious that an entire roll (or part of a roll) should tone so similarly. Probably a paper wrap?

    Nice coin to add to a collection
