Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

    The green on the reverse is just gorgeous. I agree, should be beaned.
    Very nice present to yourself.

    Outstanding Oregon MJ, great color over fantastic luster. Appears to be a true 67 as well, the Injun doesn't suffer from buckshot syndrome, and very nice of Greg to assist you! image

    There are quite a few very nice looking MS67 examples of that date, so I don't see what the big to do is.image

























    Other than the fact, that they don't typically compare to that stunning looking exampleimage

    Congratulations!

    Truly a sweet coin in every regard and I am not surprised that Monsterman had a hand in helping as he knows a thing or two about knockout toned Commems image

    Here is my new Oregon. Not nearly as nice in any regard. Having a hard time getting the luster and the toning together in the images.

    That's the plan at least. I'm trying to put together a PCGS 67 or better set that all have great color especially on the reverse. That's the money said for me. I would love to have most of them re-holdered reverse side up..................MJ
