    20 votes in the poll now, so it’s time for the reveal. Here is the unredacted GIF image.

    It was not shot under ideal lighting conditions, but gives some vague indication of the luster, anyway.

    Thanks for posting and voting, y’all.

    It's always a challenge to grade from cellphone pictures, but that GIF makes a huge difference in showing the luster! Beautiful coin with very attractive peripheral toning, I went with MS63/64 in the poll. Looking forward to the final reveal!

    I know from the looks of it that it could be a 64 also. Very nice coin.

    BTW, I acquired this coin as part of a larger swap deal this Spring, for the equivalent of about 700 bucks in trade. I note the PCGS trend price is $1,075, so I think I did reasonably well? Seemed OK to me, anyway.
