<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Dynoking, post: 7978401, member: 81795&quot;]This coin has a mirror finish that you can use to comb your hair with. At first I thought it was polished or plated.</p><p>&nbsp; The obverse device has the same mirror finish as the fields. The date, all lettering and the reverse device are cameo frosted. Striations appear in the fields on both sides. The cloudiness and color(s) in the fields that show in the pictures are reflections, the actual coin is simply highly reactive with a perfect&nbsp; mirror finish and a “hula hoop” cartwheel on the obverse and a perfect spoke on the reverse when rotated. The pink in the middle picture is my finger 12” over the coin. In hand and while using a 10X loop and a 10X/20 stereo microscope all details are crisp. It weights in at a normal 11.35 and the edge shows the copper core like a 40%&#039;er should.</p><p>&nbsp; I know there were no proofs made in 1966 and it rivals any proof that I ever saw. I am stumped to explain this coin. Any thoughts?</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1384690[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1384691[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1384673[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1384674[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1384675[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1384692[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
