<p>[QUOTE="swagge1, post: 796984, member: 22402"]Here are some pics I took of the coin. As is common, the scanner didn't capture the crimson red very well. If you look by the 50 in 1950 that is pretty much the coin's tone. Its a yellowish orange closer to the center and appears to become more crimson/red near the edges. The edges are quite nice! The very center is almost untoned on both sides. On some pics you will notice a little paper tab, I used this to create a slight angle on the holder so a better scan might be made possible. I am almost positive that this coin was pretty much blast white when I bought it. The pics also show something interesting on the steps right above the I in Monticello. I can't tell if it is a die chip or a bad bag mark. Maybe someone here can tell.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y39/swagge1/Coins/sg0001-1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y39/swagge1/Coins/sc0000.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y39/swagge1/Coins/sc0004-1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
