    I can't decide which is better. Amanda's coin porn or Dutchman's cool coins.

    The only reason I would vote for this topic over the coin porn is that it's presented in much smaller and easier to digest quantities, as opposed to an onslaught of items all at once. :)

    My new theory is that they started slabbing coins so we wouldn't slobber all over them. Beautiful coin.

    Very nice coin Matt. Check your 2015 copy of the Red Book. Due to recent research the mintage for both 1873 varieties is listed as 600 TOTAL. A big change to be sure.
