This was pulled a problem free ANACS slab. It has a weak strike, which is common for this date; but it has lots of luster! Also some interesting...
I received the dime today and am quite pleased. Indeed Mark and Mike are correct, there are some very very fine hairlines on the coin. In the...
Condor. Those two you posted are pretty scary....:bigeyes:
wow! Incredible coins!! Here are mine.

:confused::confused::confused:
true, there is also a very small patch on the cheek that is not present in the photo. I don't see them anywhere else on the obverse devices, nor...
