We almost ready? Anyone one else want to vote?

 

Yeah, if the luster was nicer (or shown better in the photos ), I'd grade it higher.

The surfaces look 65 or 66 to me -- thus the prior comments -- as I see only a few light taps here and there (for instance on Liberty's arm and shin -- typical spots for marks on a SLQ, as I'm sure you know as a collector of the series).

Now, what the heck did it grade already?

 

hang on, I need to break up a fight between my teenaged daughters

 

Geez Louise, you could have just typed the answer faster than that sentence.

Nice!:hammer:

 

For the record, I'm blaming you and your photos for my mistaken grade. Couldn't have been my fault.

p.s. cool coin, and now that you've spilled the beans on the grade, how's the luster? I'd bet fairly blazing if it got a 66.

 

p.s. take note! this is the second coin in a row I've undergraded. :goofer: :hammer:

 

The luster is very nice with that reflective circular pattern that these coins exhibit. The slab makes it harder to appreciate and photograph but I'll take a quick movie in a minute and upload it.

Nice grade!

 

So I guess it wasn't so far out of your budget after all?

p.s. I'm STILL downloading video #1 -- I figure I'll view it sometime in early 2Q09.

 

p.p.s. FABULOUS LUSTER!

 

p.p.p.s. dirty office/bedroom.
