    Very cool popout coins Todd.

    Acutally picked up a couple of more MPLs today at the local coin shop. These two are even better than the three I posted the other day. I really love these things, too bad they cost so much!!!

    You must have some pretty deep pockets to buy those high grades! Just beautiful MPL's. I love that 1914, nice toning.

    Been searching for this one for a long time. Finally pulled the trigger last week.

    Now all I need is the 1916 SLQ to complete the series. I might have to wait awhile on that one.

    Got four today. These are the two with pics.
    Lynchburg MS66

    Wisconsin MS65

    I've heard people bash the Wisconsin but I like the design. Reminds me of baking soda.
    And badgers are just cool.

    [FONT=arial, helvetica]Cornelius Vermeule, writing in 1971, was no admirer of the coin:1 [/FONT]

    • [FONT=arial, helvetica]"Like the Old Spanish Trail, the coin of 1936 that marks the hundredth anniversary of Wisconsin's formation as a territory smacks of amateurism. The models were the work of an art student at the University of Wisconsin... This half dollar of the United States is, as a work of art, little more than a high school medal of the dullest variety. As a visual experience, it ranks with some of the worst local-society or small-occasion medals which have a timelessness if only in the mediocre level of their art." [/FONT]
    The other two are a Arkansas MS66 and a Vancouver MS66.
    I guess the kids will have to settle for community college. ;)

    Claygump - nice commems - they're addictive
    900fine - that Nero is AWESOME!!!
    RaceBannon - I love SLQs too and that one is sweet.
    Picked up a couple Peace - 2 common date MS-64s and a raw 1921 - amazing that all 21s were made in just 4 days. The shield just caught my eye.

    I really like the look of the Peace Dollar. Have they ever used that same design on other coins?

    The peace was designed by an artist who won a contest for the new dollar design.It has not been used elsewhere - I also think it's one of the most beautiful coins the U.S. has ever had.
