What are those white orbs flying around in space over the astronaut's head?

UFOs, of course!

 

Stars. Don't you see the antenna, on the astronaut's helmet, transmitting to the mothership?

That mirrored field is huge on the 5oz. coin. It reflects everything. My finger pushing the button is in there somewhere.

 

From my prestige mint set through the plastic...

 

And the silver dollar, a bit of toned haze at the top of the obverse...

 

@gronnh20 did you say mothership

 

There was no way I could pay for the American Legion halves this time around. They are awful. I wanted to put a set of halves together, but, 2019 put a stop to that. So, instead I bought another overpriced set. I do like the American Legion dollar.

 

A Proof Statue of Liberty I found CRH. The luster is completely gone. No major damage. It looks like a business strike. I liked it so much, I put it in my 7070.

 

This proof might need a little eZest on a q-tip to the fields; but then again maybe not.
Indirect lighting is helping to show cameo contrast but in photos not quite showing that it is even across the obverse and reverse due to my using a piece of paper .

 

Picked this one up for $5 at my LCS; a bit hazy on the mirror fields.

 

Picked this beauty up as well for $2.50 over melt in the OGP. The inscription is as inspiring today as it was 133 years ago when first put on the original statue monument; lest we forget we are a nation of immigrants and descendants of immigrants.

 

Had a case of regret for not buying this from the Mint. Got this on the secondary market for $30 over issuance price. Scratch on the eagle obverse is on the plastic.

 

Did anyone get the Apollo 11 50th Anniversary 2019 Proof Silver Dollar and Kennedy-Apollo 11 Intaglio Print today before they sold out?

 

No, not that complete set. I just got the Proof Silver Dollar.

 

I have that one too. I ordered the one that they had available today too. There were only 500. I got 2, one for me and one for my brother

 

I'm too poor for the gold one

 

Me too.

 

I love this thread......glad it was resurrected even though it's necro.

 

Necro? LOL. This one still has a lot of life, Ken.
