Ok NGC finalized and shipped this coin out today! It's a bit of a mixed feeling I have with how this one graded: [Spoiler]
When I look at coins it shows that they include Bonus bucks. I don't think that it applies to bullion.
Yeah it looks authentic to me but that's only based on some late 18th century 8 Reales coins I have and researched.
Not as much as the 15% but right now there's an 8% eBay Bucks for $50 purchased.
Will consider offers and trades. Thanks for looking! [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]

I just purchased it, so I'll have to wait and find out what it looks like in-person, and take more pictures.
Also, I'm guessing that Wikipedia's 1917 proof mintage figure of 1 is Breen's example (?). NGC and PCGS don't report grading any in the past....
How about this one... could it be a proof? It looks quite a bit different from the others. The bottom part of Lincoln's portrait slopes gradually...
Correct.
It's closer to coin alignment than medal alignment. I only noticed that this had a rotation after purchasing the coin raw. Thinking that it fell...
By the way, can you please let me know what software you used?
I used basic Windows 10 Photo viewer. It has this rotate feature that shows the percent when rotating an image. I should have probably used...
For varieties that are unknown or difficult to ascertain, I can see the benefit of submitting the coins to CONECA or Wexler. But for Mint Errors,...
