It's been a while since I posted any newps. Not that I haven't had any, but I've been distracted with lots of yardwork. Bought this coin this morning . . . a rare date which, while poorly struck as the vast majority of this date are, is very pleasing with few marks and has very original color and surfaces.
This was a disappointment. I sent it in the package arrived damage at NGC so I did'n get the packaging back and it's only a 69.
Got a sealed proof set today cut out this gnarly piece. Looks like the mint worker sealing it sneezed and now it has 58 year old boogers on it
