I've been working on my Dansco Type album as of late and wanted to get a few good dimes for it. The only problem is that my Dansco doesn't have slots for all of the varieties of the seated series. But that not withstanding I want to get all the varieties anyway, so I picked up this 1877 CC and this 1840 no drapery, also a nice little 1943 merc rounded out the purchase for today.
First and third are nice - my kind a coins, but whats up(as already asked) with the color on the second coin? Almost looks like copper. I notice the background on the first two is dark blue and then second it is light blue - was it the lighting?
yeah, I moved the light to the side because I couldn't get a good picture from overhead. The coin is a light gray like the first one.
bq.... Excellent pick up's friend! I would really enjoy seeing all of them together! Congrats on the new additions. Regards and Semper Fi.... RickieB
Nice going with the SL dimes. It doesn't matter what face value you select, collecting an SL set is a very ambitious project. I wish you continued success.
Nice coins all. I like the 1840 ND best. Notice the slightly different style of Lady Liberty in 1840 v.s a later date like the 1877. More elegant, more classic I think.
