    I thought I might have overpaid for this 1950-D, but then it arrived :)

    You can't overpay for something you love. Nice strike on that one!

    NICE! The 50D is a low(est) mintage but available readily. I like the toning on this one - very cool!

    Colorful, I like it. And as long as you like it, you didn't overpay.

    That yummy Jeffy needs a description. How about this:

    Vibrant shades of tangerine, strawberry pink, pale yellow, and cerulean blue blanket both sides of this clean well struck example of the popular key date of the series.



    How are the steps? Look at those windows and doors, hammered!

    The left side of the steps is the best...they get a bit mushy in the middle and then get better towards the right end. Also better at the top. All in all it it a good strike otherwise, and the colors are amazing. I need to get another light so I can take the pic more straight-on...I'm doing it at a slight angle to get a better/more accurate color without the reflection of the camera. I think 2 lights will make it better. They are spot-on though.
