    Okay, I think I did a decent job on this one for @Mainebill. But feel free to tell me otherwise. ;)

    photo.JPG photo(1).JPG Just got this one off eBay. The pictures aren't that good I know but neither were the sellers. This has beautiful dark blue surrounding a maroon center. It's the only toned 09's graded I've seen it really is way better in hand. I figured $8.50 wasn't too bad for it considering what kind of premium toned coins bring. I just thought it look nice didn't need it but it caught my eye.
