    Yours is nice, I hope I can find one like it. I dread having to buy an Ike, SBA and Sac for my type set some day.

    I bought this 1833 Capped Bust Quarter at the B&M sale of the Norweb Collection in 1988. It is toned intense blue and grey with nice luster which my poor pictures are unfortunately unable to capture. A pretty coin.

    I had my 1945 TrueViewed. It did not upgrade, which is just nuts to me. I will surely try again in a while.

    You do realize you are obligated to sell that to @jwitten for a nice little profit right?

    And here is my favorite toned Indian that @jtlee321 just photographed. It is very hard to get all the colors in one picture on this one, so I will post several pics.[​IMG]

    Yeah, that this is probably the trickiest coin I have ever shot. The toning just does not behave like other's I have come across. I've got a few others he has sent me that I am working on as well. They are some very cool toners. :)

    I bet that'll blow you away when you see it in-hand. Those 60's-70's Canadian dollars and half-dollars can get very colorful!
