Amazing cherrypick

    Alright. I should start by saying that I only went into the coin shop today to get a 2008 Silver Eagle. While I was there I took a look through the rotating case, not looking for anything in particular, when I came across two rows of Peace dollars. Now I have been working on an uncirculated set for about three years (I am a college student so it takes me a lot longer), so I decided to take a look. There was a nice Unc 21 for $210, and a very curious xf 21 beneath it. I say curious because it was clearly a high AU which could easily be MS. I asked to see the coin and, when my dealer saw it, he said it was definately better than an xf. I asked him what he wanted for it, assuming he would up the price, but he gave me the Grey Sheet xf price of $135. Safe to say I didn't hesitate or argue with him. I don't have my scanner or camera cable with me, but I will post some cell phone pics in a couple hours.

    You did good!
    Actually not a cherry pick, that is for unlisted (unrecognized by the dealer) varieties, but a nice coin none the less.

    True, but I call anything like that either a rip or a cherry =D
