    @Mr_Spud nice choice. How did you get the black background with it? It looks better with the black background.

    I changed it to black using Xircle App, an app that does nothing else except crops pictures into circles and let’s you change the background to whatever color you want, and then I merged the 2 images using the “collage” function in Photoshop Express.

    @Treashunt One of my favorites. Color is lighter than the TruView, but it has an excellent strike for a 23 S.

    @Namvet69 kinda beat me to it, but

    I like your 1877-s Trade Dollar because it resembles my latest coin pick up

    Thanks for the giveaway chances!

    @alaura22 Glad you figured it out. The 1844 half was posted and members said it was whizzed so I sold it off. Got $400 from a dealer who pointed out it had been messed with.

    gumby1234: I tried to copy & past your pic of your (or at least I thought it was yours) Trade Dollar from one of your posts, but it created it in a format that this forum doesn't accept. So I went online & found a similar 1877-S pic, in the hope that it would qualify in the spirit of the giveaway......... Does it? Thx!

    Sorry @Mr_Spud but you picked my coin also. Nothing saying I can't repeat, just that I must like it. Right? Shame regarding the spots, but is what it is. I have several 16's with woodgrain effect, but none this attractive. Thank you for the generous contest. gumby.

    How about your 49s Roosie with your favorite toning. I’ll never find a picture of it but that’s ok.

    @crazyhounddog Theres probably a better pic of that coin somewhere. That is one that I got from Ron Pope shortly before he passed. Ron was such a great guy.
