Let's see your newest acquisitions!

Ooops! Sorry. I shouldn't have assumed you'd remember.

As I said in my initial post of the coin, I have yet to take photos of the reverse. Not because they're untoned or overtoned... Just because I'm lazy.

The reverse of this coin has attractive toning as well... And I may just wait 'til I get the TruView photo to post it, simply because my photography skills... Well, suck... For lack of a better word.

The two nickels are just gorgeous. It is hard to believe they 130-year old coins. Beautiful specimens.

 

Thanks! I am proud to be their "caretaker" and include them in my collection.

 

iGrade, your '55 is stunning!

 

I agree, you just don't see toners from 1955. Beautiful!!

 

Now have the bookends of the new set.

Sellers images pulled the trigger this morning.

 

:yes:

 

New today:

 

And:

 

My first slabbed Ike.

 

Love the fact that it isn't silver, Jason. That must have came from one of the unusual sets where Ike had some respect. :thumb:

 

=0 It came from the most respected dealer in the world.

 

Some I just imaged yesterday. Got 'em at my local coin show Saturday

Last night I was checking out Teletrade, not much that I saw was of interest just one $5 Indian place my bid lost, then I saw a 1943 Sample NGC in a old style holder, so I bid on that and darn it I won this thing. These are Teletrade photos
