My brother gave me a BU 62 penny. It is in really nice shape and very shiny.

srs77: Is that a quirk of the photograph, or is there doubling in the motto of that 2014 silver Eagle?

Quote: srs77: Is that a quirk of the photograph, or is there doubling in the motto of that 2014 silver Eagle? A quirk.... The proof ASE has such a shiny surface I believe my lighting cast a shadow of the motto. I've looked at the coin again and can find no doubling.

here's a combined showcase of 2 days' worth of arrivals.... a pretty nice Volterra case for 6 Quadrums. I find it the best compromise between exclusivity and a display of one's 'wealth in assets'. silver or gold of course   the cheapest I found on ebay, which would've been a far better buy had shipping not been equivalent to 20 Singapore dollars.... another encapsulated 10 francs 1973 from another purchase on the cover  what everybody wants to see of course... 27 grams or so of .900 silver, key date, with a mintage of just under 300,000.  50 francs, the next key-est date following the 1980 by a huge margin. strangely, it rings dull compared to the 10 francs. this brings to mind how my 1887 Victoria .925 1/2 crown dulls compared to .500 silver crowns... any thoughts?  could it get any better than this?... of course it could, with a little splurging here and there. i'll save that for later when I'm able to afford more magnificent pieces  I'm a happy man....

Well the 20th was my birthday, and a girl I recently started seeing surprised me with this puppy...an NGC certified MS69 1987 Silver Eagle. The picture doesn't do it justice. I was pleasantly surprised!
