It looks genuine to me. It matches the BB-51 die marriage. The obverse is the correct off-centered bust for the die marriage-Check!. The B is...
I 'm calling it a very solid 55. With extra points for cool clashes!
If we define "america" as the national government of a formally unified country comprised of the former English colonies, then no such entity...
I saw a number of MS and PF 67s at Lakeland but they all had problems. I didn't look at any raw coins, though. BTW, nice seeing you there.
I've been looking to upgrade the raw war nickel in my type set with a super nice MS-67 or PF-67 in PCGS or NGC. The current example is shown...
