<p>[QUOTE=&quot;WingedLiberty, post: 1190329, member: 26030&quot;]This made me laugh!&nbsp; I like the way your mind works.&nbsp; Agreed!!&nbsp; Actually when I put $60,000 in gold and silver in 2009 I had no idea I would make 50% profit in the gold and 100% profit in the silver in 18 months.&nbsp; I was thinking I would make those kind of returns in 5 or 6 years; so I really feel ahead of the game.&nbsp; Sometimes I will pull out a bullion coin and go trade it for something fun exciting that &quot;scratches my coin collecting itch&quot;.&nbsp; Bullion is great for making tons of money, but it&#039;s not terribly interesting. My bullion gains has definately helped to defray the cost of my rare coin hobby.&nbsp; Most of my rare coins actually feel like they were free to me as they were bought with bullion profits; so I suppose I am looking at this like an accountant!</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp; Amazingly, the coin actually looks better in hand than the photos.&nbsp; Here is the zoomed up image of the reverse.&nbsp;&nbsp; There is a tiny bit of that rare salmon pink/violet combination just below the MER in AMERICA, but it&#039;s not nearly as prominant as on the obverse.</p><p><br /></p><p>I find it interesting that the denticles on this coin show the rainbow colors (same on the obverse). Take a look at the bright rainbow colors on the denticles below the word DOLLAR.&nbsp; I think that&#039;s a rare characteristic.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>By the way, does anybody know why the &quot;t&quot; in trust is not capitalized?&nbsp; It always looked so strange to me to see &quot;In God We trust&quot; on the back of the Morgan Dollar.&nbsp; On all other U.S. Coins, all the letters are capped.&nbsp; There must have been a reason the designer George T. Morgan did that.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]124851.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
