[QUOTE="krispy, post: 869557, member: 19065"]I also received my coin today, the 44-S PCGS MS66 toned war nickel, and the coin looks great plus it's my first certified toned War nickel! Seeing the coin in hand really helps me understand Lehigh's toner imaging techniques and interpretation of coin color. It's very impressive to compare the coin to the pics Paul posts of his coins and to think of the work it takes to get those images to look that good. My little digital point and shoot camera cannot handle macro detail, nor does it have the focus and clarity that Paul achieves with his images, but I wanted to post a quick pic of the coin that's going into my collection as evidence of my receipt of the coin and Jefferson love. :thumb: Thanks for the contest and for the chance at some great prizes. :bow: [IMG]http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy46/kcttck/US%20Coins%20-%20Certified/1944S_5c_PCGS_402466_9467040_1600px.jpg[/IMG] Also, note that Presidential dollar coins are great for slightly raising and tilting the slab to offset reflections on the plastic. :high5:[/QUOTE]
