Booker and his AMAZING technicolor half dollar!

I don't normally like Bookers all that much. This one however came out of a roll and I thought it was a nice looking coin. I'll probably send it in for grading.

Nice Matt! Love the colors.

 

Ha ha, the title of your thread sounds like a Rikkie Lee Jones song!

 

Beautiful coin!

 

That is a nice one.
How close to that picture does it look in hand?

 

The colors are slightly more vivid in hand.

 

That looks like a beauty. I have some canadians with that kind of toning.

 

I'm not a fan of BTW's either. I have a couple that are gemmy but blast white and just won't tone after years of storage!

That one looks worthy. Nice. Is that a little spot of verdigris/PVC on the reverse at the corner of A in MEMORIAL? Will you give it an acetone bath before submitting?

This coin went into an NGC MS66 holder this week. Just an update.

 

Try a reshot with the coin in the slab and see if you can get the colors more realistic.

 

That picture is very much what the coin looks like in hand... with just a little less luster then it actually has.

 

Got ya, it sure looks pretty.

 

Pretty looking coin, nice colors.

 

CONGRATS! That coin is the bomb IMO. I'd love to see it cartwheel in hand, I bet it's a nice show.

 

The pictures impressed me more than the coin and the coin IS impressive! Nice pics, Matt!
