<p>[QUOTE="John Burgess, post: 7626422, member: 105098"]that's a beauty also, try photographing it in a cold blue color led light. you get the toning to pop more and see where it's going to be if allowed to tone further. I think on this 1941 it's got more on the obverse (like mine) but it's still mostly "red" and not really toned yet so it's hard t see it. </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Example of same 1915 with cold LED lighting. change the lighting color and you might get to see what's going on better. I thought my reverse was relatively clean until this, then I noticed the triangle wedge at about 4:30 pointing at the T.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1312133[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1312134[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Anyways, I think the 1941 just needs more time to slowly develop toning to really get the colors to contrast each other, it's no doubt a woody. the stripe above "ONE" on the reverse tells me that along with the area above Liberty on the obverse, the colors just haven't developed yet.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
