Wood grain

I've never seen a wood grain coin, if i did i didn't know what i was seeing. the examples that TonkawaBill and Kentucky provided are really nice coins. after seeing some of these coins I'm gonna see if i can find one.....not bad at all

I'm sporting a woodie also!


shows a bit better I think in cold LED light as opposed to warm incandescent.
Warm incandescent is in my opinion the better more natural picture though.

 

A couple things about this post. First, I have no idea what that magnifier device is that the OP used, but I've seen others on here with this same device and the pictures are always horribly pixelated. I am NOT a fan of this device at all. LOL are they capable of clear pictures?

2nd, In my opinion, there is added value for woodies in the AU-MS range, the same as there is added value for nice toners of any denomination or design. it's not for everyone, but people like their uniqueness enough to fight for them in an auction, where they wouldn't for a Brown or RB for the same year and mint mark. it's really subjective though and in the eye of the beholder, some are more attractive than others, and some that have circulated a while, just don't have the eye appeal of the lightly circulated or uncirculated ones due to the amount of contact interfering with the pattern.

Just my opinions.

 

My favorite woody in the collection

 

These woodies always remind me of Jan and Dean: “I bought a '30 Ford wagon and we call it a woodie (Surf City, here we come).” I know, I know, you don’t have to say it...
