[QUOTE="Stork, post: 3084302, member: 71642"]I made a small haul with Heritage from last week (I think). Some multi coin lots wherein I was after one coin, so now I have a few dupes. This was actually a new date. It's in an old NGC slab with the solid insert (as can be seen in the intruding white bits). It's not quite full red like the slab calls it, but it's been in there awhile and no weird fingerprints at least. Just a few spots: [ATTACH=full]777249[/ATTACH] 1886/Meiji 19 1/2 sen. 64RD (though not quite exactly anymore). Also picked up the next two as part of lots that had upgrades for me. I liked the looks of these though too: [ATTACH=full]777252[/ATTACH] 1906/Meiji 39 in an old style/no prong NGC 66 slab. Looked very lifeless on the Heritage photos, but in real life, has a nice bit of luster and pretty pastels. and: [ATTACH=full]777255[/ATTACH] 1916/Taisho 5, in an old no line/fatty slab. Very dark around the rims but some great bits of color in there too. Also a nice bit of luster my shots don't show. Heritage's shots were even dingier. This was not a target coin, just came in the lot with the others, but in hand I liked it. Shoot, I'd thought the slab was the more interesting bit until it showed up in hand. There were a few more, but I'm still working on the photos.[/QUOTE]
