[ Click on coin to view full size image ] Description
A strikingly beautiful coin, spotless and brilliant. If only they all looked this nice! The strike is sharp and perfectly full on both sides, and there are no distractions. The color is a perfect copper hue, the kind that you wouldn't call orange, nor golden, nor pink, nor red; it's somewhere right in the middle of them all. A subtle dusting (not toning) graces the vibrant surfaces to give the coin that sought after natural look. This is what you want to see on full red coins from the twenties and back, since it is a common trait of original red.
