This is an interesting one.
The coin is a 1974 Specimen Proof French 10 Francs. Mintage of 7300.
This is the TrueView attached when you look it up. The PCGS number is 17245010.

Some of the first "Gold Shield" holders had images but they were nothing like trueview quality.
I sent in this double dime in under a quarterly special when the Gold Shield holder first came out. This is the image attached to the coin verification lookup, no reverse image provided. 16184633. Gold Shield images have come a long way!

Don't ya ever wish the "True View" pictures actually look like your coins do when you receive them??
Wonder how many of the posters in this thread would comment on the accuracy comparing the pic to the in hand view?
I'll comment! The medal I posted looks exactly the same in-hand (within the limitations of metal vs. computer screen) as it does in the TV. Here is the image I posted-

I like it too. I'd like to add a TD just like that with 2 to 4 counterstamps to my collection..
one of my favorites, a crossover that graded higher and is now "worth" a lot more.
Restrike, the original is slightly out of my price range, I like the colors. It's in the #2 set, "100 Greatest Women on Coins"
No longer own this one but it was always one of my favorites

No saints yet so I'll toss two in.
The toning on this one is very subtle. In hand you can see right through it at most angles.

The one I've had the longest.
I've never seen these colors on any other 1915-S. She is a bit dirty but I don't mind.

Many do and once you understand how they approach True View pics you can usually figure out what many look like in different lighting situations.

Here is a coin I bought about 11 years ago. Just this year I discovered that there was a trueview attached to it!

Great Two Cent piece!
The ding is bad, but bait a trap with toned gold and you will catch me every time.
Just one more from my Kennedy set.
