Congrats! That completes the set, right? That's quite a feat as far as I'm concerned. Someday I hope to do the same!

My choices in order:
1
5 & 2 about tied for 2nd
4
3

Maybe it's the picture or the lighting but #4 looks cleaned to me, but it still looks better than #3 in my eyes.
Rest in Peace

That may be my fault. I brightened it a tad because the shadow was hiding some of the detail. *this is a good trick when looking at a heavily shadowed coin on ebay to determine the detail*. I posted the ebay link in the last post.

I already posted my thoughts so I am naturally biased.

Nice choice.

If anyone ever finds this coin, it was stolen from me.
BIG reward for locating it. Thanks.

Sheesh. When/where did this happen? I'm sorry to hear about that. :-( It looks like a solid AG-3.

Eventually it will surface. What goes around comes around. I believe in that. Sorry for the hijack of the thread. Lets let it go at that, but I did think it might get some good exposure here. I apologize.
Now back to our regularly scheduled program.

I didn't say anything since I'm a really lousy grader but if I was forced to take one it would have been #1.
I'd prefer a MS graded on though.

Yeah, me too! Unfortunately though my wife wouldn't really appreciate me taking a second out on our house.

At one time (before our burglary) we had 11 d's. None can ever be graded by me again because even the puniest looks magnificant.
