It’s axles are set like a tractor (semi-truck) but the “trailer” is all the way to the cab. You are not turning like that. There appears to be no fifth wheel. AND the trailer (box) appears to extend further past the drive axles, like a trailer would.

Of course it is a coin with limited space so we don’t know for certain. I can tell you as a driver, I would not want to drive a truck with a long box on top of a truck with the drive axles positioned that close to the cab.

I prefer the MN-09 myself. Something about the way you look up to the whole seen. I like it the best. It is a straight truck, and from the little we view of it, I feel it is a proper straight truck.

The MN-07 series is what the article states as a first pick along with the MN-03 I complained about. The 7 series is good, I like it, (not as well as 9 though).
The 7 series at least has a proper semi truck (tractor) and trailer depicted.

I know it is focused on the refrigeration for the Innovation, but please!!! let’s get the vehicle it is on correct.

Ok, rant is over. Thank You

P.S. As soon as I posted this I went back and reviewed the images. MN-07 & MN-08 series look to be more period accurate, maybe?

My choice of MN-09 I still prefer however, if one looks at the steer tire. I have a problem with the wheel. It is either a spoke type wheel that is not really finished in detail for the period, or it is a modern looking sport type wheel.

If taking a quick glance at the wheels of the 07 series vs 09, I would say the 07 series is more accurate. At a glance anyway.

Again 03 series, space between the cab and a clear to see 5th wheel and it would be better. Still not as good as 07, 08, or 09 though.

I was thinking along these lines.

The Marines now have Marine Corps Air Station Miramar (MCAS Miramar).

Agree on the timing, those two 70-D’s look every bit as good/better as the two white coins that I have.

“Russet toning” partially imparted onto the coin surfaces can be considered good character for an old coin hanging out in the attic for decades…

Chillin Late Night. Spring starts tomorrow morning.

We could be close to photographing and writing our Opus Magnum on the Kennedys.

Something to think about.

Do tell. A pic would be nice.

You know I like the no-tarnish look (unless the tarnish comes from being in a 1936 holder kept in the attic).

Rick,

I would like to help you out on those, but I already have two. My only advice, when you sell them, sell them as “Buy it Now.” Also, after April 1st, the tax return money starts rolling in and that usually helps the coin market. In addition, I think the stock market will recover within a month or two. So, it is a good time to sell coins. That MS-67+ is a keeper and I don’t think an MS-68 is possible for the 1970-D. You have the Top-Pop for that coin.
