The wreath crown may not have been the best, but the rest of the design is one of the better ones they have come up with in a while.
I find the spots to be most irritating on this low mintage piece but it's beginning to be the standard quality from the US Mint! Almost makes me want to open an account across the border.
Which border? I think you will find just as many, if not more, spots with Canadian products. However, if you go south, Libertads are generally of high quality. If you like variety though, the Royal Canadian Mint will take care of that, as they produce an ungodly number of different issues a year.
I love CT! I read the tip from Yo Yo and forgot to follow through. Needless to say I lost out on purchasing this issue from the Mint. Word to the wise, when you come across a good tip on CT follow through with it.
Pcgs graded the one west point mint I bought as a 70...Guess its off to the bay. Wish I bought the max!
I mistakenly thought the household limit of 2 applied to both mints, so one S and one W was my limit. Would have bought 2 each if I had known. Still made a nice profit on them. Was kinda sad to see them go as I liked the design.
The design is nicer in person, but it didn't "wow" me on the site. I just figured with a low mintage it was worth the 40 dollar risk.
