    I like the colors but it looks weird to me for some reason. Maybe I'm just used to seeing them brown

    Nice pick up from NAI. They really know quality, and your coin is no exception.

    For a BROWN, that is really nice! Heck that is nicer than a lot of RBs.

    Huh?

    Looks like a nice PF 2 cent copper that was stored in tissue or something.

    I guess I need to follow along more because I seem to be missing out on some inside jokes or something like that...

    Those look like remarkable semi-pl remarkable fields and strike. I'd like to hold and tilt it to look at device contrast and to comment on the color.
    I'd like my copper well done please!

    Agree. Beautiful coin but the colors look strange to me.

    The colors are one thing, but the strike is incredible! Is this a business strike? Mel

    The colors look unusual to me, but I like it very much. It seems solid for the grade and color designation.

    A great looking coin. I agree that Bill and Christine have a way of finding great coins.

    Colored copper like that makes me nervous, too many scientists out there.
