<p>[QUOTE="Vess1, post: 26676536, member: 13650"]Looks great! Wish I had the Liberty $10 and $20 for mine. The $10 is looking awesome. CAC'd up too. </p><p> I used to have a AU-53 classic head $5 in 2011 but in a rare instance I sold it to buy a one of a kind Browning X-bolt white gold medallion in 7mm-08 with stainless barrel, incredible burled walnut and rosewood accents. I still have that though just stashed away like the $5 would have been. Would I do the trade again? Yes. But I love classic heads. </p><p> Something interesting about them is that the earlier years were 90% gold mixed with copper and silver. When gold coins have silver in them they tend to have a more greenish gold hue like your quarter eagle. The later years went to just gold and copper. Very noticable compared to the $2.5 Liberty that follows it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
