MS-63, Brown
I don't view the OP coin as an upgrade candidate because of minor marks. I have had this one in my collection for over 20 years. It too is an NGC...
Many years ago I took a No Stars dime to a dealer, was “bid” at $200 to a dealer who put on one of those visors on to look at it. He offered me...
The some guys in the coins shops are always looking for "the rip." That $225 offer is around the melt value and totally ridiculous or "unethical"...
I have a pair of them. I bought the second one because I liked the reverse. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Compared to its age, yes. I would be surprised if the carving was done more than 300 years ago. That would be about 1720. Yes, I am a lot older...

I don't collect very many of these pieces. Here are the only two I have. I bought this one of George III and Charlotte's marriage at the 2022...

Here's coin that might give some nightmares. The reverse shows "The restoration of happy times" ... A Roman soldier doing in a barbarian with...
That one is one of the “copperheads” that supported the Confederate cause. “Fort Layfeyette” was a prison in New York harbor where suspected...
