Getting caught up on your GTGs for your commems. I like this one. Clean with nice luster.
I'll say 63 due to a couple of hits on the reverse. Pretty coin, though.

In my experience the CAC coins *usually* have outstanding eye appeal, which is something I've learned to appreciate. So generally I would go with...
In my mind all silver gets added to my collection!
That is a great stroke of luck! Glad the coins found their way to your collection.
Nice to have a teller that helps you out like that!
That is a great link. The color progression is explained well.
This is a great thread. You can find some cool things if you look.
