All this 2008 gold buffalo talk has got me to....

Look at my old ones and play a little with the lighting while waiting for my new set to come. image

This one somehow has a ton of orange toning. Must be from the rinse because 24K gold should not tone. image

    You bought the 4 coin Proof set....way cool!!!!

    I bet NGC has a special slab as we speak.

    I wonder if PCGS will have a special slab??? image

    I got the shipping notification on Friday. Can't wait. Usually takes a week and a half for registered mail to get to me from the mint. image

    They might have one for the PCGS Authorized Dealers, otherwise no. That is a thing of the past for collector submitters.

    I think he was referring to a 4 coin holder.

    Yes and as we all know this method is some times poorly packed and coins jostle all over the place. image
  • your pic is super sharp and crisp but looks a little too orange. excellent pic otherwise.

    That look is on purpose. The coin has toned quite a bit to get that orange peel look and I put the lighting up facing the ceiling and for a 30 second exposure.
  • sweet pick up.

  • image Love the coin!

    Is there any way you can post a high res pic? I mean a really high res pic? The same pic as in the first post, but with more pixels? I would very much like to use this photo as my desktop background for a while. I can PM you an email if you like.

    This is by far the best Indian Head Gold photo I've seen to date.
