<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnny54321, post: 486889, member: 13342&quot;]I personally find it difficult to photograph a coin that properly reflects its luster, especially when its in a slab. I agree that the coin looks flat in the photo, but it may possess ample luster in hand. Either way, a coin of this magnitude I would need to examine in hand before I sealed the deal.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, with a price range of 1K -1.5K, I&#039;m kind of picking at the bottom of the barrel with this series. High end AU-BU coins that are certified are usually 2K and above. However, I agree that luster is important and would like to have one that has some degree of remaining luster.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, this coin is in a problem-free ANACS slab; so if it were cleaned/dipped, it wasn&#039;t enough for ANACS to notate it. There also appears to be a fair amount of toning, which I am attracted to. I also liked this coin because it seems to be free of the scuffs and hairlines that usually accompany the certified $3 gold coins I&#039;ve looked at.</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyways, thanks all for the feedback and Merry Christmas!!![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
