Easter Egg Toned Coins
I just wanted to share some pretty coins with "Easter egg" style toning - a few 1944 steels! The US Mint made 2 franc coins for Belgium on leftover 1943 steel cent planchets. This is about as close as any of us can ever come to owning a "44 steel. Enjoy and have a Happy Easter, to those who celebrate the holiday! (Wanted to show them from a few different angles; tough sometimes for me with the iPhone camera to do nice toning like this justice; still very nice colors, imho.)
