    I like the die polish on the obverse. I also love the burgundy on the reverse. I don't see that color very often, but I do like it very much.

    Cool coin.

    I love it! Nicely toned coinage from 1936-1942 is tough.

    There's a famous quote by Mark Twain, "The coldest winter I ever spent was the summer in San Francisco"...

    And he was absolutely correct. And I just read my sentence and had to edit it... What the heck was I saying! Anyhow, I remember going to a Giants game, the fog was dipping in and out of the Candlestick park roof. Craziest thing I've ever seen. And yea, I should have brought my parka or at least a blankie! lol

    Ugh...don't remind me of the Giants. I'm still having Madison Bumgarner nightmares... :nailbiting:

    I'm in Camarillo, about 10 miles closer to LA than Oxnard (not just another pretty name).

    Back to toned coins... these two arrived in my mailbox today...

    1958-D Washington
    1958-D sidexside.jpg
    1964-D Kennedy
    1964-D sidexside.jpg

    (and just a quick note, the Sacramento RiverCats, the SF Giants triple A team beat Round Rock, the Texas Rangers AAA team, 11-0. And from a long time Giants fan, Candlestick park never had a roof, and Madison Bumgarner never played there. He came to the Giants in 2009 and has always pitched at AT&T Park :))
