    Thanks golfer.....I know TomB had a real nice looking one for sale too on the BST not too long ago.....you may want to check it out if it's still there.
    Plus Kove had another sweet one, too, in a OGH, MS65.

    Thank you for the shout out about the CT that I have. The CT commem is my favorite of all the commems and the Charter Oak rules. By the way, your new piece looks terrific.image

    The luster on that one looks luscious! I've never owned a Connecticut commem for I have never been able to find one I like. Maybe someday. BTW, I like the look of yours very much and I also like the small ANA slab that it lives in.

    Not really looking for much these days but if I were, it might be a toner. :smile:

    Nice coin! image The Connecticut commem is my favorite as well. I posted this one in another thread a couple of weeks ago. Besides an attractive design, they usually have booming luster.

    Slammer, I like both the coin and the painting of the tree quite a bit!

    Very nice Connecticut you have there SS. What am I not seeing that makes it an MS-64? Looks nicer to me.

    I don't know but I like owning PQ coins in old slabs even if it's just technically a solid 64.


    Thanks everyone for the nice comments.....the other posted examples here look very nice. image
