Hi, thanks for the compliments. Yes, it's PCGS MS66, cherrypicked. Here is a 1943-S 'trumpet tail S' in PCGS MS65, also picked up for average...
The seller, lihaojiaoyi721 , is a well-known purveyor of Chinese fakes and has been featured in multiple threads on the Coin Forgery eBay group....
Nice! I don't have one of those yet.....
Maybe I can help, a little. I have a few of these. The only one I have a photo of right now is this 1950 S/S: [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
Glancing at Heritage archives, it looks like cleaned ones in that grade sold for $600-$800. I suppose much depends on the appearance- worth less...
