Newp. just came in today from northeastern coins. It's my first dmpl/pl and is also my first ngc slab as I normally go for pcgs. It's outside of what I normally am looking for but when I saw her I had to have her. enjoy.

WOW! Stunning coins everyone! :yes:

I just bought this sweet set of toners from eBay this morning and am THRILLED. It was a great price and I'm going to get some rainbow additions from it to add to my current set. The "Library of Coins" album is an added bonus!

Looks like some nice toners in there. I am also a fan of the Library of Coins albums!

 

Nice TRV......like that 1954...:thumb:

 

Thank you both right kindly!
When the set does arrive I think I'll take and post a few individual pictures too......Especially of that 1954! Yee-haw

 

A tough coin in the grade plus it's a type II

 

New DMPL in the house:

 

Newest addition to the "Working Man Gold" type set.

 

A new IHC :smile

 

Very nice Indian...:thumb:

 

I thought the toning on this one was pretty nice. It has a "streaky" look to it, and was quite different from most proof coins I have seen. I took these images with the slab tilted, and a 3 image "focus stack" for each side. It's still a little dark, but you get the idea of what the coin looks like when tilted into a light.

 

Those colors are amazing

 

Gorgeous rainbow toning...breathtaking!!!!!

 

Nice coin. What else is going to be in this type set?

 

That coin looks absolutely stunning. Did you pick that up off ebay or auction sites graded or raw?

 

Sent a whole bunch of coins to robec for photos; here's a proof he nailed:

 

Here is the twelve piece set I am working on in AU58 as the target grade.http://www.pcgs.com/SetRegistry/publishedset.aspx?s=103881&ac=1

 

I sometimes low ball "lots" of Jefferson nickels. I recently won a 21 coin lot (1938 - 1970) for $20. I was very pleased when they arrived. Most were uncirculated, and it had some gems. Not to mention there were 4 1950 D's. I don't consider them "key" dates, but they do have some value.

Anyway, I imaged the earlier ones. I think it was $20 well spent.

 

Oh, and a nice type coin for my secondary type set.

 

All the coins look nice, especially that liberty eagle. One more question, why is it called the "working man's gold"?
