A 1910.

These seem very similar in that they seem almost tan, rather than red or brown.

 

Finding these in red is tough, not many were saved once the 1909 VDB hype died down. I remember looking for years for one. I ended up with like five 1910's (only a couple are red) in my collection because I kept finding non-red coins that I couldn't resist. I mean, how could I turn this one down?

 

I also have, like, five of these. Some have problems, some are closer to what I hoped. I just have a thing for these early dates.

 

Another 1910

Great pickup, 05Wildcats! Not easy to find a 26-S that nicely struck.

 

This one has a small ding.

 

Well, if we're pursuing our 1910s, I may as well repost mine.

 

Update: Here's the thread I started in reference to my 1909 ? VDB question.

Hey, Caz, how you doing? @Cazkaboom

 

Okay, I've had enough of this! Time to bring these 1910's down a few notches.

 

Picked up this Whitman album for less than 30 cents each. Most are dogs but A few nice ones and the 51 PDS are quite nice. Tough to capture the toning. The S mint is weakly struck but I think they are all MS.

 

So I rinsed in acetone and put in airtites. The P is through the airtite the D and S is without the top of the capsule on. Great luster on the P and D and a little more muted on the S. Nice Deep red. I wonder the S is probably RB and the others maybe as well but might pass for RD? What do you think?
