Very, very cool. That was a defining day to this ten year old boy. And was the only time I saw a tear in my grizzled old granddads eye. Very cool...
I think @green18 is correct. I will say that I have seen coins that spent decades in old Whitman books that showed terminal toning that looks much...
No worries. That’s why we are all here. Any twenty dollar gold is a double eagle and any ten dollar gold is an eagle when talking about pre-33...

Whew!! I was afraid for a second there that I was doing it wrong!
After a lifetime of collecting I have a lot of complete albums. I finish them and tuck them away in the safe to be looked at once a decade or...
You mean we are supposed to have goals with our collections?o_O
Just Wow! I am a confirmed blast white guy and have a particular weakness for well struck coins. Man, this one doesn't disappoint!! Thank you...
