Newest 7070 Type Set additions

coinsarefun · March 8, 2008 9:09AM

I picked these two up today. My Type set is not looking too shabby now.
I went to the show in Buena Park. The first time and is was nice.
Unless its my imagination, prices on many, many coins are starting to leap forward.

I found a decent 2 Cent. On the obverse it has a streak of yellow color running through it and something about that I liked

And a Standing Liberty. I think that the slight pastel toning looks well next to Washington.

I think both are AU, which is what I'm shooting for throughout the album(eventually)

So what do you say?

Some nice looking coins! Congrats. looks like your set is coming along nicely!

I'm a fan of both those coins

I agree that the toning on the SLQ matches well with the Washington.

Looks like a couple of very nice additions to the 7070.

Congrats on the pickups.

Those are nice! Stefanie, here is the 7070 2 cent I found a few months back. Fell for it immediatly - I really like that woodgrain in copper. Your 2 center really has character.

Excellent......looks like you're doing a great job!!!

Good eye

Great looking coins. That 3 center (nickel) really shines. I was way to hasty filling holes in mine and now I find myself still unfinished and trying to upgrade at the same time.

What caught my eye was the 3-cent silver. Not the topic of the post, I know, but I really like the looks of that one.

It's funny, when I first joined PCGS, I raided my 7070 for my first submissions. I basically wanted to protect my better coins, and get the professional grader's opinion. Their opinion was that a sizable number of the coins I had bought to that point had "altered surfaces"!

Mesquite:

It's like a ray of sunshine showing on the obverse

NHSBaseball:

Very nice examples, Like the duece a lot. But the star of that set is the Trime man what a stunning coin.

Really like that 3 center. Has alot of character.. Nice looking type set.

planetsteve · March 9, 2008 8:45AM

I think it's way cool that you're essentially building a toned unc set with the looks matching up as closely as possible. Very nice and very nice progress.

I'll say!

Bravo! Very nice!

lordmarcovan · March 9, 2008 10:48AM

Hot-diggety-dang, I like the target toning on that Merc!

stev32k · March 9, 2008 10:56AM

Very nice coins and very good photographs - I like the way you put both sides together. I'm also working a 7070 set in AU. Think it's going to be quite a while it's completed.
