post a coin that you think is stunning, but that others go ehh ...

Huh, really? I like it. I'm not sure I like it enough to pay $529 for it, but it's nice.

Thanks. I did pay some premium for it, but no where near monster toning premiums.

 

I stay away from coins like these. Hard to believe PCGS certified it like that, maybe it went bad after it was slabbed. The darkest areas appear to be toning that has advanced to corrosion that has eaten into the metal.

 

...and I just love this one:

 

"That's a silver Round, not a coin."

 

Sorry for the horrible blurry photos I took when I first bought it. It is graded by PCGS as MS-65FB. Some people may think the toning is plain ugly but I love it. I paid $8 for it at a Flea Market, probably less than what it cost for the grading alone I regret not buying the other similar dimes she had in the same grade with similar toning for the same price.

 

I think it is breathtaking. LOVE it. The colors are so unusual and it has perfect toning, plus great surfaces!

 

Immediately thought of my watch. (not my photo)

 

I think that's a gorgeous coin. And, yes, you should have bought the rest of them she had, lol.

 

I have several vintage pocket watches. So when I saw the silver Round, I had to have it.
