I've got a few that I think are stunning, or at least pretty darn nice, so will start the thread with this British medal produced to commemorate a Royal visit to Canada in 1939. It is about the size of a silver dollar and I believe the published mintage is 260-pieces. I purchased this raw years ago along with its original cardboard holder. I still have the holder and medal, but the medal is now certified by PCGS.
There has apparently been an image bug on the PCGS boards recently, so if the image doesn't show up for you that is likely why.

Here’s a few graded toners from Mrs_Spud’s Roosevelt collection that I think have great toning 🌞

One of my faves from the collection.

And here’s a few graded toners in my collection that I think have stunning toning, albeit not as dramatic as some of the other coins posted in this thread.

Try, try again. Nope.
My #2 Lincoln loaded fine though.

1875 AU58 CAC didn't load either.

Between the mirrors and the color, this one is pretty intense:

This thread is awesome. There’s some utterly insane coins being posted here!
Really wish I could get a few more to load, but here’s a couple more. The Franklin is my daughters’ favorite coin in our type set by far.

This is a Gorman pedigree coin

The tone on the reverse of this 1880 seated quarter (PR63, CAC Gold, NGC Fatty) is quite spectacular in hand. The obverse color is a tad more muted.
The PR64 20c piece has gorgeous color on both sides.

Stunning, in essence, is a pretty tough standard to live up to. However, there are some real stunning coins in this thread.



I have some nice coins, some with lovely tones and great surfaces, but only a few I could consider stunners.
.
This first one has been in the BHNC for about four decades I think (according to the member who had found it raw). It was his, then was with another member for a short time, and now is mine.

.
This next one is a little more subtle, but when I consider everything, it might be the finest CBH I own. Close for sure. It certainly is one of the finest in overall look and eye appeal of any coins from this Die Marriage.

@pursuitofliberty Todd, I’d say that ‘08 is every bit a stunner!!!

It looks entirely legit to me, I think the one above it (or maybe it was this one) was QC at one point but it graded the next time through. I own several coins other that I think are NT but were QC the first time through (and are not now) and I own some that are straight-graded but I’m almost certain are AT. It’s not always clear to me, or the graders, even with decades of experience.
@robec Those Lincolns are fantastic!

Nope. What is wrong with adding photos to posts?
