Even given the quality (or lack of) of the pics. this is a beautiful coin. It's as if you used a time machine to pluck it from the mint the day it was minted. I see nary a mark on the eagles breast feathers or any other high spot. I would prob. give it a 67 with the caveat that I reserve the right to change this assessment if I ever get the chance to view it in hand !
You can't eat it! Well I guess you could, but..... (& you thought that would get by with no comment!!
Yikes. Whatever its cost. You got a deal. Thats like paddys 13d buffalo. Fine coin. Only two of a kind. Please save that for grandbabies
I am gonna try and get a slab pic up soon. It's been a long day and a tough schedule ahead. Maybe I will be able to afford a few coins when it slows down. Right now I feel overworked and underpaid, This working thing takes me away, from my true passion which is coins. The Brick and Mortar coin shop that I buy most of my coins from is up for sale, I'd enjoy it. Ah heck, I would probably keep the coins that sell for a premium, and would feel the same way. Seriously, I am getting too old for this.
You can just tell us.... I think we'll all take your word I'm gonna go against the grain (just cause) and say the grader was having a bad day, gave it a 64. ;P
There was a new member that guessed this one on the Money. It was @Mike Drop , I am pretty sure that he was playing a little hooky. On his phone, instead of doing his school work. Good Guess and welcome to Coin Talk.
By the way, there is some sort of strike thru 2 o clock, from the one in the date, and a few dings in the out stretched arm. Also some evidence of a worn obverse die. Extending from lady Liberty's hip to the Y. Couldn't believe the reverse was better. It's virtually mark free.
You know what? That MS-64 was a great thing... It made buying a stunning coin so much cheaper!! It's certainly a gorgeous looker, I'd give her an 11.
