I like the luster on this lower mintage double eagle even though it is "only" a 63, especially the reverse...

Though my pics leave something to be desired, and I feel like I have been spamming this coin on every thread, this is by far the greatest luster bomb in my collection:

May look like a film from 1910. But this was some GIF experimenting with photos from the later days of my old Sony Mavica with the 3.5 disk around 2011.Not as smooth as some GIFs I tried as this was made of only 7 to 8 pictures per side compared to around 12 to 16 which made them flow smoother.
This was a PCGS-65 Red that I thought could easily have been in an MS-66 holder. Think I sold it on the Buy Sell Trade here around 2011 or 2012.

PR67+ w/CAC - This must have been one of the very first coins struck off of newly polished dies!

“Distractions” are only glare, not on the coin.

Steve....That '36 Buff is incredible...Have never seen one like that...Cheers, RickOAs I noted, my guess is that this was one of the very first coins struck off of newly polished dies. Keep in mind the 1936 Proof Buffalo was the very first Proof Buffalo issue in 20 years (since 1916), so maybe they when they made the "Brilliant" ones, they wanted them to look really nice?

On the reverse, any "distractions" are as a result of glare, and are NOT on the coin.

@winesteven I needed sunglasses to capture the beauty of that 1932 gold eagle! That is a true stunner!

I am basically a non-US collector, but I always wanted a nice looking Walking Liberty 50c and was able to win one last year in a StacksBowers auction, so I thought I would continue this thread with photos. Not the least bit rare, but I didn't care...
