    Cazkaboom One for all, all for me.

    Well, I just finished cropping all the pictures I took.
    My mother needed a memory card, the one I had was full so I moved pictures to the computer and lost all the pictures... Now I gotta go for a reshoot. Dag nabit.

    Here are a couple of the pix of the Frankie. Not my photos, but will take more when it arrives. Paid on the high side for this coin, but love the toning.

    I like panda bears, I helped a friend, I received this.
    I'd not have bought it myself, so it was a nice surprise!

    Definitely not a rarity, but my son's birth year coin. Nice example for the date ( not here yet, but paid for and on the way) :

    I read this and it reminded me of Elaine on Seinfield. I just remember her always pushing Jerry and saying' "Get out of here!"

    For the price you got a winner winner chicken dinner.

    Online purchase. Believe this to be undergraded, but, kind of cool to see a photo included.

    1977-D DDO-001 FS-101 NGC MS63


    Kennedy 1977-D DDO FS-101 3188829.008 NGC MS63 Coin with MottoD.jpg

    Surprisingly, this die has more than its fair share of die polish lines which tells me that far cleaner examples might possibly exist. However, given a certain attrition level with 1977-D Kennedy's, they might not be out there. Time will tell though since this is a new listing for the CPG which should guide others into looking for it. My only other examples are an AU50 and an AU53 in ANACS plastic.
    As a side note, there are also DDO-002 coins out there.

    Well here is my newest. Researching this coin I found out that while being minted they were handled very roughly and many nicks and dings were created before being circulated. I gather that this was because the mint was well into 1936 and didn'tmake delivery on time for the 300 year celebration. The obverse shows an Algonquin indian head half covered by the head of a Dutchman. There is still plenty of satiny luster on my coin but even with my best attempts and poor lighting it is tough to do this coin justice. It has a lot of bag marks, scratches and dings which the photos from where I purchased it didn't show. I have no no idea what this coin would but I seriously doubt it would grade higher than MS-62. The more you look at it the more character the coin displays.

    I agree. I DID collect a nice coin in a no longer existing TPG. Just interesting. I don't collect slabs, but when I seen a unique slab with a NICE coin, then I will make the purchase.
