NICE! Tough coin, AU-63.
Check out the shoulder on these: http://coins.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=1139&lotNo=2860#54095409057...
I have to disagree with the mob concensus, this coin IS a proof. In 1950 some of the proofs had a satin look....look how frosted the date is. I...
I need that....2 for 2 this time....and it bumped me up a notch.
Yes!
HA, I missed this post.....thanks for sharing and the kind comments. Honestly, that coin had very heavy verdigris and was not a good conservation...
