    The coin has been graded MS details (AT) by anacs. The bet is whether pcgs will grade it or send it back in a bodybag.

    If it does grade, I expect it to go ms66, just missing fb.

    @MercuryBen I'd say it's 50/50. It looks fine to me, but will PCGS see it that way? I don't know.

    @Paddy54, is your contrast set too high on your camera? It almost looks pixilated.

    Seller's pics, but if it's half as good looking as this, I'll be thrilled:

    Dude!

    You do realize 2.5 gold with toning is kinda @jwitten's thing and now that you made it public don't be surprised if you get a PM from him ;)

    How does that color look in hand? I can't tell from the pictures if it's more of a staining looking toning or if it pops at the right angle

    This one I call "Jedi Mind Trick"

    She sat at the bottom of a plastic tube with a crack on the bottom which created the "lightsaber"

    These pics suck, I really should do some better ones. It's not as dark as the pics indicate. The color is a vibrant green with yellow red outline

    I don't usually name my toners with such little color coverage but the pattern and placement make this girl the exception to that rule

    My new picture. I absolutely love the edge view holders. This picture looks so much better than my old one too! It's not 100% in focus, but I wanted to photograph this when it came back in the new holder, unscratched!
