For example look at the steel pennies in davidh&#039;s signature and you will see brilliant luster and very nice eye appeal. The fields are reflective and the design and inscription are bright. When I look at your coin I feel like I am looking at a negative of a photograph.</font></p><p><font size="2"><br /></font></p><p><font size="2">Other than that the coin has some very nice details</font></p><p><font size="2"></font>[/FONT][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
