Looks nice! I just debated ordering one. Maybe I'll try to make it to a dealer this week...

 

Noticing the grainy (frosted areas) is much heavier in appearance on the silver parks quarters than that of the half... how about the other coins?

 

You're correct Chris. The graininess is much more evident on the quarters. It's subtle on the other coins in the set.

 

Interesting that they cannot give the Quarters' dies the same treatment at the half. The half looks great. Having both finishes looks very inconsistent as a "set".

I wonder how the numismatic versions of the AtB 5 oz. Silver Quarters are going to look with that laser grain... bullion pucks may end up being more eye appealing when the two are compared down the road.

 

love the parks quarters and the new sac dollar, if anyone would like to donate them to my collection, please feel free.

 

Well, like I've stated in the past, I'm a fan of this so called laser etching. Give me a minute and I'll post the reverse of the Kennedy. That looks really nice in MHO.

 

Wow those are nice

 

Kennedy reverse......



What appears to be "haze" to the right of the eagle is just a smudgey area on the lens.

The coin is flawless.....

 

No that is puzzling... the grain is evident on the reverse but appears less rough, more smooth on the portrait of Kennedy on the obverse.

 

Can you post pics of the cent, nickel, dime, and Presidential dollars?

 

Nice & congrats. I am waiting for graded 2011 Sac. to surface on ebay. I have bought every reverse design change of it & wanna continue with it. Not too crazy about this years reverse though.

 

I like this year's Sac dollar reverse better than the last two. BTW, there are a few certified on eBay... by SGS.

 

Lol, I only get NGC versions of them.

 

Yup, will do......tomorrow. BTW, I really like the presidential busts in this years installment. None of 'em approach "goofy" like some did in years past.

 

I know many collectors are less than thrilled over the National Parks Quarter program; but I'm thrilled. I highly enjoy the theme and artwork. The 2011's are no exception; they're stunning. I can't wait to get them in silver.

Thanks for imaging the set green18; it's my first look at 2011s.
