    Eye appeal is off the charts!

    My favorite is the top one 1921 P. I don't know anything about the AR Savino collection but I'll have to find out.

    Thanks for sharing!

    Nice coins. That 24 looks FB to me. Edit to say I have seen others get fb that weren't as close as that.

    These look great. I had heavily circulated 21 with great original surfaces at one time. Hoping to find another one like it someday.

    True! If it's not, it can't be missing by much. In late 2018....is there a difference between Full Bands and Full Split Bands? I discussed this with JT Stanton many years ago. It's an interesting question.

    Perhaps the op will say, I thought they were the same just abbreviated.

    That was my thought as well. I have never heard anyone else say there is a difference. But JT knows his stuff and maybe there is in the cherrypicking world!

    FB and FSB is the same. There is among some a higher form of bands called full rounded bands, which is more than a mere unbroken line between the bands.

    Some really nice Mercury pieces.

    I too like the detail on the wing of the 1918-D. :+1::+1:
