<p>[QUOTE=&quot;The Penny Lady®, post: 1222681, member: 16948&quot;]My Indian cent collection is pretty complete and I&#039;m quite happy with it, but once in a while a prettier or more interesting or better quality Indian cent comes along that I just can&#039;t resist and then I have to choose between the one I already have or the potential new one that may have different characteristics.&nbsp; I try to be strict about keeping only one of each date and/or the specific characteristic I look for:&nbsp; colorful toning, neat error, and/or bold variety (otherwise, it would be very hard to be a dealer!</p><p><br /></p><p>So when I saw this beautifully toned higher grade 1878, it &quot;WOWED&quot; me and I knew it would fit better in my collection than my old 1878.&nbsp; And thanks to Chris at Key Largo Coins, I was able to add it to my collection.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://bluccphotos.com/clients/charmy/7-10-11/Images/2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>My old 1878 is also very pretty and has a lot of pizzazz and I really like its eye appeal, but it doesn&#039;t have one of the three criteria I mentioned above.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://bluccphotos.com/clients/charmy/lb-2-2010/web/Images/7.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>I know and understand that many copper collectors would prefer the usual red or red brown toning and some of you would have kept the old 1878, but I love the uniqueness of colorful toning, and am very happy to add this new 1878 to my collection, and just had to share it with you![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
