    Nice!! I especially love the grey toning on the reverse. And if you want a quick profit ill take it off your hands lol

    Matt - it appears to be kind of weakly struck for a '79-S. Is that just the pics or not ?

    Si Senor, I'll agree.
    Looks like it;s weak but he pics and the toning may play a part. I see no hair over the ear and the breast is weak.

    as far as 79 S's go this is not one of the better struck examples..

    Matt,

    That is a nice coin but not something that I would pay a premium for due to toning. The reverse is a little on the homely side if you ask me. You got it for a good price though which is great. I paid more for my MS64* ($170) than you did for your MS65 rattler.
