[QUOTE="Lehigh96, post: 838803, member: 15309"]Charmy, I find that coin eerily attractive. That is to say it is remarkable in an unusual way. I bet the luster is incredible. It seems to me that Todd's photos seem to downplay luster in order to capture the true essence of the color scheme. People often overuse the term monster with regards to toning and eye appeal. Personally, I have developed my own criteria. If I see a coin and can remember the coin and what it looked like years later, that to me is a monster. There is only one large cent that I can recall meeting the monster criteria. I have seen it sold several times and no, I am not convinced the toning is NT. Here is the Anaconda photo. [IMG]http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o59/ACPitBoss/Indian%20Cents/Picture1521.jpg[/IMG] I like your coin, but I have a feeling that if you asked me one year from now, I don't think I could give it the monster tag.[/QUOTE]
