Yes. My father who lived until he was 93 years old gave me some sage advice when he was in his late 80's. "A man thinks a lot more clearly when he only has one head to think with".
Props to your pops, thats a nice round number Barney, I can only wonder the changes in lifestyle that will happen in 43 years. Hey, @No_Ragrets I thought I saw a cleaning on the lower reverse is why I went details.
I've decided I'm leaving this one slabbed and just making a note in the album. Maybe it'll get cut out in the future, but for now she's encapsulated and graded.
Following your lead, I couldn't pass this one up today. Could get details, IDK? What do you think about grade? Yours looks nicer. Paid a couple of bucks less than you but yours is a sure thing. 1878 7/8 strong, rim toning, raw. Will be interesting to see what PCGS thinks. Hoping that mark just under the jaw doesn't get a scratch detail. This is the best I could do with sellers photos.
One more attempt to enlarge sellers photo. It may not work or enlarge when clicked on. Will see soon enough. Edit.......nope. Second edit.....success!
