Some of that and a pale gold toning that doesn't show in the pics is

 

What's this now? You guys are posting proof trade dollars and I wasn't notified? Just kidding of course, I've been away for a while, but I picked up a short run of raw proof trades a couple of weeks ago. They are on their way to PCGS for grading, but they are not very high grade. Of the six, I'm expecting four PR-63 (one with a cam designation if I'm lucky) one PR-64 and one PR-65 cam. The one (78) is really nice and is covered with a vivid rainbow. I'll get some images up as soon as I get them back.

Nice to see you guys again.

 

Only some crappy raw low grade proof trades?!! I bet there's a low grade 84 or 85 or both in the mix i do love the trades especially in proof I got a couple now eventually working on the full run too many coins I like too little money

 

Well there was an 85, but it was only a PR-61 so I drilled a 1/4" hole in it and wear it on a chain. No need to waste money on grading that lowball.

 

Lol yup there's 4 more out there their easy to find!

 

Didn't realize these were "trade dollars," but I love the Maria Theresa Thalers because you can get a really nice coin for peanuts.

 

Just got this one on ha 20 min ago I'm in love!!

 

Beautiful!

 

Ditto that Doc !!!!!

 

I do the same , but I use a hammer and nail .

 

How many proofs do you have now . I still haven't got one . Maybe now that the kid is done with school I can afford one , but probably not with such beautiful toning .

 

This makes 3 my highest grade pf-64 and the only one with spectacular color I have an 1882 and an 1877 hoping to eventually have em all

 

I won't ask you how much it cost , but the coloring must have really boosted the price . It's a beauty anyone should be proud to own .
Will you take a brand new 20 dollar bill for it .

 

I don't mind it was just barely shy of 4k with the premium I'm figuring it at $4k with shipping it sold last at ha in 2001 for $3450 there was an 1883 in 64 with nice but not as spectacular color I liked too was my second choice if for some reason I didn't get this but I had my heart set on this one and was willing to pay a good premium for the color I'm just glad I could afford it!! As to your $20 offer it'd take more then a couple $20s and they'd need to be gold

 

Can't blame me for trying . lol

 

Not at all sounds like something I'd say too

 

Such a nice looking coin, I am jealous.

 

I haven't seen in hand yet but is in my top 3 favorite coins I own along with my 1795 flowing hair dollar and my 1794 s-61 large cent

 

Pretty coin.
