AU55 because of that little scratch by the nose....do yawl see it? ah, just joking CoinJockey73. how did such beautiful coin get so scratched? I've always thought the reverse on this coin was awesome. the engravers back in that day knew how to bring attention to a coin, gold or silver.....or copper. good luck brother
Heart breaking, right? These belong to a friend of mine. Figured I'd do some digging. I'll grab that book too. Thanks for all the info. Greatly appreciated.
This lady is quite "baggy" and has seen some use in commerce. I would call her an AU. But who can't be in love with a big hunky double eagle??
