<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Skyman, post: 8006515, member: 28299&quot;]Oftentimes the statues from classical Greece or Rome were found with the head off, normally because the statue fell over, courtesy of earthquakes or &quot;barbarians&quot; knocking them over.&nbsp; Oftentimes some of the arms and legs would also be broken off.&nbsp; So, after a while, in the Western world, statues were often just created of the torso or without a head.</p><p><br /></p><p>The models were Jennifer Innis a long jumper from Guyana and a water polo player from USA Terry Schroeder.</p><p><br /></p><p>[USER=117191]@William Bailey[/USER]&nbsp; My piece is a proof piece.&nbsp; You can&#039;t tell the deep cameo on the obverse in these images, but you can see it very well on the eagle on the reverse, and the image of the reverse shows just how reflective the fields were.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>[USER=37839]@Morgandude11[/USER]&nbsp; I bought the piece a little over 5 years ago, and it was in your basic plastic flip.&nbsp; I have no idea specifically how it was toned, but I do know that these 1984 silver dollars of both designs do occasionally get some very good toning, so my best guess is the toning was imparted by the packaging.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Here is a picture of the entrance to the 1984 Olympic stadium in L.A.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1389103[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
