    Here's a tougher variety, an R3. It's raw and probably wouldn't grade cleanly. Can anyone guess the variety?

    Damn. That was fast. Yes, it's the single leaf variety.

    Send me you mailing address and I'll ship it tomorrow. ;)

    That's my kind of coin, Lance! And, yes, the variety extremely is tough.

    I call it a 35. :)

    Good for you, Brian! Nice taste. Sometimes circulated VF's are as pretty as they come.

    I was hoping for XF40. Can you stretch a little? Only because ownership is worth an extra point.

    Absolutely. Hahaha!

    A 40 looks possible... I'm just a conservative grader. ;)

    You planning on a submission?

    Jeeeeez loo-eeeez! That's... That's incredible. Cherrypick, or purchase?

    A friend of mine was able to Cherrypick one of these in VF-Det. (Cleaned) a year or so back... It went for around $900 through eBay live auction. And, well, as I'm sure you've noticed, the price of this series as gone through the roof in the past few months!

    With a mintage of a mere 1,200 pieces, this is truly a rare coin.
