    Make me feel better and tell me that is not in a slab!? I've been trying for weeks to capture those colors for an 1885-O.

    That would be a PCGS/CAC MS65. Sorry if I spoiled your day. :(

    Maybe this will make you feel better?

    LOL. It'd be a long story. And honestly, there are too many variables.

    If you send me your coin I'll shoot photos for free. You just cover S/I both ways. (I have references if you're a little worried.)

    PM me and I'll give you more info.

    @ thecoinzar, I am sure it is from a life of clean living that has kept the patina off you. LOL

    I love toning on circ coins. BTW, isn't "brown" considered tone? :devil:

    Great coin!

    Lance, is this the rare "1884-S Reverse of 1878" die variety?... :rolleyes:

    If not, I think you've got your obv/rev photos mixed up. :)
