    Love seeing the two versions side by side, helps me understand the different "looks" a coin can have. Well done.

    Can I ask what you paid for it since the seller was reluctant to part with her ?

    Is this another attic coin? You don't see these every day.

    I'm not sure what you mean by "attic coin", but I purchased it from a collector who had it in his collection for several years. I have never seen one like it and decided to stretch for this one before I lost it. Very happy I did!

    i love early american coins as the allegories of american values truely ring from sea to shinig sea. i wish theyd go back to being that way instead of the sausage fest we have now on our coins. for my fiance i once cast a round medal using a furnace and grafite mould. i then had the trophy store next to mine etch a side bust of my fiance dressed in similar dress to the "turban" lady liberty for our 2 year anniversary. best 92.5% round medal ive ever made. hopefully many yeats from now i can brag that theyre grandma is on a coin. thats how beautiul her and our country mean to me.

    Picture? Of coin, or wife, will suffice.

    Nice addition! Interesting to see the TruView and your pics side by side. I don't have any TruViews (that I'm aware of) and have heard the pics accent the color. Seems it's very true.

    Great looking coin.
