This coin means a lot to me and I've had it a long time.

It's one of those coins that I have always gone back to look at over the years.

The Trueview did not capture the color that this coin shows with little effort but it is a fair representation.

It lights up with reds and blues at a very slight angle.

    I like your image WAY better! Can you post a larger image of the one you took? Nice coin!

    Thank you.
    I can not take a good pic especially if trying to show any color.
    This is all I have and it doesn't do it any favors.

    Sparky64, nice coin, and your picture shows the color differently than the Trueview so you can see it.

    I love it. I like the TV pic better because of the glare (lighting) on yours. Very nice coin.

    It’s a double quarter :)

    Q: When does a collector become a numismatist?



    A: The year they spend more on their library than their coin collection.



    A numismatist is judged more on the content of their library than the content of their cabinet.

    I think that PCGS has assigned a grade that is truly relective of you. You ae aging very well, in fact almost untouched, but definitely not mint state. And.......you are totally original.

    Nice old coin... shows some reasonable commerce....Why did you finally send it in? For the TruView, protection or something else? Cheers, RickO

    Good question with no good answer.

    Always intended to keep it raw but I had 4 vouchers that were about to expire and I was scrambling to find coins to submit.
    Getting a TrueView was one deciding factor.

    I immediately emailed the photo department to see if they could reshoot it but it was being shipped back before they could act. Also, they didn't take any other images of it, like they occasionally do.
    But it's completely fine. Happy all around.

    Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......
