    Picked this up today and believe me these photos don't do the coins justice. The dime and quarter are a sweet blue and the half is a nice mix of color.

    Not sure about the conditions thought I would try to show some shots of both sides...

    Very nice rev. I know it can be difficult to capture the true color. Nice pickup.

    Thanks, that dime is definitely that blue.. the half and the quarter also show some nice blue tones.. the penny is just blueish mixed with the red. The nickel is golden more or less..

    I have a 55 and 57 proof set, The 55 half has some nice toning and the 57 is starting to tone. Dumb camera wont take good pics of it though.

    Does anyone think any of these might possible be worth sending in for grade? Better photos...

    Can you take pictures of the individual coins? Maybe the dime??

    I have a shot of the reverse so far, I'm using a camera phone so the shots are not the best..
