yotie Pillar of the Community United States 3077 Posts	Posted 10/04/2012 8:21 pm I hate to say it but I bet this coin looks better in Proof but I do like the mintage numbers for a coin I picked up cheaper than an AU Peace dollar so for your viewing pleasure Report this Post to the Staff

commems CCF Master Historian of USA Commemoratives United States 12255 Posts	Posted 10/04/2012 8:35 pm Another nice coin in OGP! IMHO, it's a design that looks good in either uncirculated or proof. One advantage for the uncirculated coin is that it won't develop the milky haze that eventually impacts so many modern proof coins and lessens their visual appeal.

muddler Pillar of the Community United States 7187 Posts	Posted 10/04/2012 11:11 pm As I have the two coin set and am prone to like the proofs better I do agree on this one. I just wish they could have made a better image of the geyser. Report this Post to the Staff

Captain Morgan Pillar of the Community United States 620 Posts	Posted 10/12/2012 3:51 pm LOL Any coin with the American Bison ends up in my collection sooner or later. I have both of these MS and Pf both are great in there own ways On most modern commems I like the MS or unc, ones better than the proofs. And for the most part they seem to hold there value or go up faster than the proofs. I am working on a set of Modern commems to leave to my grandson one day. Report this Post to the Staff
