    The reverse just sparkles. I just wish I could have captured all the colors at one time. Even Phil didn't have much luck.

    Boy, oh boy was this a tough coin to photograph! I'm not completely content with how the images below came out, but I doubt I'll ever be able to perfect 'em, so they'll have to do for now.

    Anyways, this is a neat O.101 R3 - overdate 1817/3, and probably the most dramatic overdate in the series. It's housed in an OGH and displays some very colorful album toning!

    I've never been a fan of toning on circulated coins, let alone Bust halves - I like them as brown as they come - but when I saw this one, I figured it'd be a fun way to spice up my Registry... Plus, the price was right. :)

    Sorry... lots of pics. :)

    SO MANY PRETTY COINS!! hahaha Personally I really love a silver coin with nice golden-reddish toning around the peripherals!
    but most toning is pretty attractive. Toning makes a coin sexy hahaha
