I am also leaning more towards a proof. That is a pretty good strike to be a business strike.
From the blurry pics, it looks like an outstanding coin!
I wouldn't even replace the 2x2's, but that's just me....
It looks like a clip to me as well, nice pick-up!
ouch, I would not trade for that coin. It would not "grade" due to the problems but looks to have vg/f details. You can find one with less...
I tend to go after XF45 or AU58. You can find some relay nice coins in those grades for a fraction of the cost of "higher" grades...
Well said sir!
