thanks for sharing! beautiful coins! I love the look of that cent, I think it may be a PL though. that toned nickel is a little odd IMHO, it reminds me of artificial toning..i won't say anything more than that though because I know some nickels have been known to tone interesting colors. thanks for sharing again!

i'll add in some 1967 coins of mine of you'd like, I don't want to distract from your original post though.
Feel free to call me Will.

Of course, feel free to add! The cent is from a specimen set that was in a gentleman's basement since 1967, so I believe it to be a SP :) (silver set in red velvet)

ok a BEAUTIFUL example either way! I like that it has luster and a strong cameo, a great looking combo. I think I recall hearing PLs were put in the red cases but I don't know since they came in pliofilm anyways.

here's what I have for my 1967 top pop set so far, the PL dollar is 1 of 3 with 1 finer, the dime is finest, 1 of 6 in SP-67..idk how many have UHC. the SP dollar is top grade and only the second with UHC that I could find...and the half is 1 of only 2 graded MS-66 by ICCS, it's definitely far superior to the other example(look at the recent colonial acres auction)


again, thanks for sharing and letting me share

Very nice! Do you have better photos of the 50c? I'd love to see them! Next time we meet, I'll bring along some 67 coins for you! Perhaps if I go to Torex in person I'll even keep my eyes open for you! :)

thank you very much I have a quarter in SP-67 HC as well from the expo but haven't gotten pics yet, the half is simply gorgeous, that image is from the seller, i'll try getting pics of it as well as the quarter another time. I look forward to meeting again, I had a great time yesterday!

I kept an eye out for nickels you'd like at today's show but there wasn't much

I'm gonna try my hardest to go to Torex this time, I haven't been in a few years..i mostly sold stuff at today's show in hopes of having some money in case I can come. if I can't than I REALLY appreciate your offer

Nice coins everyone!

Red box sets with silver medallion contained PL coins, same as in pliofilm.
Only black case sets with $20gold contained SP coins.
Time wasn't always kind to the red case sets.
My set purchased in '67 has turned the most ghastly shade of blue-gray on the reverses.
The set you have has toned quite nicely Apitrix.
