    I'm trying to give her away in a deal I'm working. Let's see if she gets a new home...

    Well I just picked this one up. A PCGS MS 63 with great toning. The photography is nice, but not quite clear enough to VAM, so I will wait for it to arrive.

    Probably needs a name if anyone has a suggestion!

    Is that rubber band toning on the reverse?

    That is an excellent observation, but I don't know if we will ever know for sure.

    I see toning from end of a roll that had a rubber band holding both end coins within the roll. Album like toning from the sulfur in the paper roll and almost terminal from the rubber band.

    As for a name? The reverse looks like the "no smoking" sign.

    No Eagles allowed?:D

    I like your thinking and had not thought about the roll angle as I usually attribute this type toning to an album where the cardboard touched evenly all around the rim. But you are right that a roll would produce the same effect. But usually the end roll coins I see are toned on only one side and have fold marks across one side from the flaps. It could also be a coin that was not end roll and some debris got between two coins.

    I do like your thinking on "No Eagles allowed"
