    I have a friend who has a small facebook auction platform. He mostly sells moderns and bullion coins, but when this showed up I couldn't resist. Still in the 2x2. Opinions on grade welcomed. also variety, I think it's an O-112 but Overton is not my strong point!

    physics-fan3.14 You got any more of them.... prooflikes?

    Absolutely gorgeous, original surfaces. I love the look of this coin.

    Grade, I think it might make VF-30, but it tops out there. It's a solid, mid-VF coin, with great originality and eye appeal.

    Thanks for the comments and thanks for the attribution OKBC! I went to Maibock's site and wasn't so sure about the T over I alignment thing. NIce to have confirmation.
    I think Jason is spot on, I think it's a solid 30. I love that it's 170 years old and nobody has tried to "improve" it thus far.
