NIFCs in every box but not one of a date needed by KT.
Box 1 contained a bicentennial proof, which had a light coating of rust on the left half of the coin. KT soaked it in Super Iron out and the rust is gone to reveal a light etching over that portion of the coin, ruining it. KT took a pic just to show it...right half of the obverse is beautiful with mirror luster on the field and nice frosting on the head...the left half is dull luster. It looks a lot better in the image than in person.
Box 5 contained the non-silver find of the Hunt...an off center strike on the obverse. KT took several images and finally got one that shows a reflection from the raised portion of the right rim, like a sliver of a new moon. Note the letter L in Liberty is right on the left rim and how far the letter T is from the rim on the right side. It is a keeper coin because KT likes mint errors, and it is not in bad condition overall.
Otherwise that is it for this week. On to a hopefully better CRH next week!
