<p>[QUOTE="Kasia, post: 3149944, member: 31533"]Take a close look at the differences between the blues on the two coins. The OP's coin has a blue laid down like it was slipped into or got some sort of indiscriminate dose of spray or was gassed weirdly with it. It has no 'finesse' at the way it is appearing on the coin. You basically won't see that naturally. 'Progression problems' aside, Lehigh's coin on the reverse actually not only has the cyan showing in a natural way on the coin with it not overlaid onto higher details (see LUR in PlURIBUS), there is some indication of good color progression and the colors lay naturally together when they are seen. It looks to me that there are two really good color progressions on his, starting at between about 5:30-7 and progressing 'upwards' twice. That is so cool. The cyan on that fits so well. Gorgeous example of real toning on that side. Although the obverse is not really to my liking, Lehigh's coin is fantastic.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
