Tarnished Tuesday

#1 Unread post by Westin »

Time for some real dark ones. The dealer threw this in the junk silver pile, but it's a nice MS-63. I think they thought it was just a junky one because of the black colour, but I like this look. It reminds me of nice cabinet toning on hammered coins:

Ah, coins from the dark side! The 1896O quarter is the most valuable.
Have a good day.

Nice one. It reminds me of old postage stamps. Although this was well before those came out
