    Toned primarily in deep pink hues on the obverse, with areas of orange-yellow and electric turquoise blue; reverse is a blend of the deep pink and turquoise blue seen on the obverse.

    :) You don't actually work in the marketing dept. do you? :D You left out tangerine, raspberry, and subtle tones :D Trust me I've read a few and your description is not making me hungry :D

    Hot pink and sky blue. I also see some copper in there.
    Very attractive in my book.

    I wouldn't be surprised if this coin was once owned by Ray Collins, lead singer and harmonica player of the Mothers of Invention. His favorite color was "nuclear magenta".

    I wonder if some of my old mint/proof sets that have been stored away for about twenty years might look like that. Probably not. If they are, I will need to eliminate them. Perhaps at a yard sale in the spring... Yeah, that's the ticket... call them my 'Spring Bloom' sets.... :D;) Cheers, RickO
