Thanks guys. @Coinfrog @jbuck @ AcesKings. I actually found another 1881 and 1905 I like. I need the seller to send me some additional photos......one at a time though.... That aside this one caught my eye immediately.

Quote: I was drying my hair when I thought I heard the doorbell. I looked outside and saw the mail carrier driving off.....I was at said point "a man with a mission." I chased him down for the required signature....They never come this early. It was a new postal carrier. Here are some pics. Mission accomplished.  Very nice!

I found this one on a coin site I've never visited before. The first photo is what the seller had shown on their site. I was interested in it just based on that alone. I did a little google and bing image search for proofs and came across the second photo which basically solidified it for me. 1905 PCGS PF66 BN. I locked in a first payment this morning. Let me know what you think. I'll update it with better shots if I can when it arrives may be a couple weeks. #QuarantineCoins!!

Thanks Coinfrog. This may takeover my number 1 slot for my favorite proof IHC. That will be determined once in hand, but it does look like it has potential to do so. The array of colors definitely drew me to it.

Don't see any distracting flecks or uneven coloring of any kind. Love it, best proof you've ever shown, imo.

Your fascination with "not-quite" proofs continues to amaze me. I bought many of these over a long span, never broke even on any of them. Seriously.

I know this one isn't a slam dunk, but I do like the colors in the headress and at the bottom of the wreath. It's not a fully-toned one as I would like, but I still find it appealing. I just like them all it seems though.
