Ive been wanting a toned Connecticut for awhile now. That coin is a keeper for sure !!

Our mother passed on in 2015 and my sister and I found a US Constitution commemorative coin set (like the one above) in her safe deposit box.

Mom was not a coin collector and we could not figure out how she acquired the set.

 

Me too. The pastel colors are just as good, if not better in person. I am very happy with it. Good luck in your quest. I think it is the prettiest off all of the commems - even the Oregon - which comes in second for me.

 

I think that design looks better with some toning on the oak tree side, which gives it more of a 3D effect. The very 1st one i saw, was a golden brown toner that had that crusty looking tone that really accentuated the leaves and branches. I want one !!
How many commems did they make- where you are actually a fan of BOTH SIDES???
Most would probably include the Oregon Trail to that very short list, but im in the minority there. Im not really a fan of the half naked Indian sporting the deer skin speedo

 

This is a thread I can play in...
