Wow, those proofs! Love to see the old as beautiful as the new, and the new Apollos and reverses are extraordinary. When I first saw the footprint, I thought it was a huge hole in the coin! Took a while for the brain to see the image right.
Here are a couple pre 64 ungraded proofs I picked up today, being sick of buying sets with no nice cameos. Seller's images. I will update with my own when they arrive. Gonna post these in the "What's it worth?" thread Think I did OK, wouldn't be surprised I didn't.

 

@dwhiz, very nice V Nickel. It's very cool that it's in that old NGC holder. I really like those.

 

My newest, a first year design for the H10’s. Slightly rotated reverse. The toning looks as if it could have been made of gold.

 

Sharp!

 

Not bad for a rookie

 

Now I just need an 1837 for the date set of this design.

 

37's are quite harder to find... you just don't find them ....they find you!
And prices are higher ....mintage of 871,000 two varieties a small and large C.

The 1837 seated aren't cheap neither......2 varieties on that one also.

 

Here's one

 

Here's 2

 

Those rocket coins are hard to image.
I used my flashlight reflector to image the obverse, the color was wrong so I converted it to a black and white. (PS I think I put the spots on it)
The reverse I just took it normally.
The Kennedy was no problem

 

New ups today,nice honest skins

 

Another win today was this 1865 IHC. it sort of reminded me of this 1876 centennial IHC carved in an 1876 IHC.
would love to add a few more of these to the IHC collection.

 

I like#2

 

Whoa, nice newp Paddy! I remember the centennial one and love it but that new one is another real work of art. It looks 3D. Awesome.

 

You guys keep posting these photos of the moon landing coins and I'm just going to have to go out and buy some for myself! They look pretty nice. Thanks for sharing! I also am drooling over that Kennedy. I can't wait to start my own set of those!

 

Those are some GEMS right there! Good luck on the grading! Wish you the best!

 

Love that Sesquicentennial
