Very nice coin. Luster does indeed boom, but the ticks bother me a little. I'm unsure of my indecision......lol
WOW! I knew the strike and luster were pretty good. Also knew Ike's were bad for planchet flaws and TPG's aren't supposed to take points away...
I love this! I've been thinking about doing a Guess the Grade Ike edition. Glad you were more proactive! Concerning the coin.....I'm VERY torn....
The ultimate in slab collecting.......
