I was playing with the white balance trying to achieve more natural appearance when I saw Thad's 1926 so I figured give it a shot. The first coin is in my dansco the second is one I couldn't walk away from. Both are UNC's however the second came from a large bag and was subject to marks. Both exhibit the wood grain alloy mix. All opinions welcomed. nlp

The top one is OUTSTANDING! I can see cartwheel luster big time. The purple-ish head toning and woodgraining ROCK. Just a stunning example, looks to be at least MS-65.

The second one is also very nice, but there looks to be a finger print on the reverse at the bottom. The woodgraing is nice on the obverse. There also seems to be some hint of previously removed light verdigris on the reverse. The coin is virtually free of hits. MS64

Nice toning on these coins #1 looks to be MS-63, and #2 looks like MS-62 only because I can't really make out the wheat stalks. If they are full and no wear than MS-63 also.
