He was grinning ear to ear,:D because he knew he scored. I never get anything like that, maybe a few sticky Cents.:vomit:
I traded this one at the last show for some really nice coins, I think I made out well. I like the peace dollars raw, and just couldn't get myself...
It's not the fumbling fingers, it's the lack of proof reading that gets some of us. ;) I still miss some of mine.
It's quite nice for me as a collector to see those folks who I learned from leave posts, It's been a while, good to hear from ya!.. @physics-fan3.14
The Kiddo bought some stuff himself and went out towards the coin star. He got, 8 zincolns, 2 coppers,2 quarters 2 dimes a 5 euro, 2 euro. 50...

Depending on the surfaces they may grade somewhere in the middle, for me I grade them on the low side.
It doesn't match the MM position of any that I looked at. It looks like it could possibly be doubled at the bottom but there is also some damage...
I would let it sit some where and grow a skin, might still come back cleaned though. Just looks a little dull.
