    I really liked the woodgrain look it has to it. I dint have a solid IHC "woody" yet. It is in an NGC MS63BN holder and is what I believe is an unattributed S-4 variety. If I am correct, this variety of the 1869/9 is much rarer than the commonly collected S-3.

    NGC has only attributed 8 examples (2 MS) with one finer than 63BN (MS64RB). Not sure what PCGS has graded in their census.

    Last sale I could find was an ANACS MS63RB that went for over $1,400 in Feb.

    I think the S-4 looks more like the fabled overdate.

    The last picture is off the NGC website.

    Ill post more pics when I get coin in hand.
