When trying to describe a DMPL to a potential buyer there are many ways to characterize the piece.&nbsp; &quot;Puffy&quot; refers to the look of the portrait being well frosted and appearing to rise from the surface of the coin with depth or...puff. Not all DMPL dollars are created equal either.&nbsp; &quot;Liquid&quot; refers to the fact that the fields appear watery and/or mercurial.&nbsp; Some do not.&nbsp; Some DMPL&#039;s are flat and not as attractive.&nbsp; You will see when you receive the coin. I must warn you, they are addictive and you will probably find yourself seeking out other DMPL dollars. Many coins are purchased from large collections and pieced out. We buy most of our coins thru a want list system with some friendly coin dealers and we regularly attend a lot of coins shows.&quot; </span></p><p><span style="color: sienna"><br /></span></p><p><span style="color: sienna"><span style="color: black">I did finally reformat the images of the coin posted earlier in my usual way ...</span></span></p><p><span style="color: sienna">[/FONT]</span>(I can see why you collect these coins, blu62vette.&nbsp; They are very striking.)</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]123871.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
