[QUOTE="iPen, post: 3042888, member: 69760"]I've been on a roll lately lol. The first Columbian half looks as if it's a DMPL. It's got a deep mirroring like a proof strike coin. It's more mirroring than I've ever seen on any other PL Columbians! You can read text from like a foot or more away! The first photo is the one I took. I had issues taking more photos so I posted the seller's original photos to follow. But IMHO, that's not the best coin! The second Columbian is a PL, too but not as deep of a mirrored fields as the first one. However, the proof markers are all sharply defined! Check the parallel lines in the triangular fields behind Columbus' neck, and the parallel line of the central sail along the bottom. Here are the diagnostics as documented by [URL='https://www.ngccoin.com/news/article/3083/1892-Columbian-Half-Dollar/']NGC[/URL]. Do you think that they're DMPL and proof coins? Thanks in advance!
