I wouldn’t buy it
That’s very cool
MS64+ MS66
I have other coins going to NGC and they don’t charge you the full fee for designation review. To me, it’s worth $10 to get it reholdered and...
I believe that MS67 5FS is the correct grade. There is some weakness on the 3rd & 4th steps under both the 2nd & 3rd pillar but under a loupe,...
Wait till you see the slab photo, my closeups really don’t do it justice.
Anyone else, I’m going to reveal in a few hours.
+1 Doesn’t look like a luster issue, they were really tough on this coin. I would expect MS63* or MS64* from NGC. Plus I think toned coins look...

I would lean towards MA but this is a coin that I would like to see in hand before making a final decision. I don't trust that photo.
Looks GEM to me, MS65 BN, very nice.
Maybe, but your point about time of sale was just validated. I bet I couldn’t sell that coin for even $50 today, much less $70. Now that I know...
Fair enough, but I still don’t consider 3X “strong money”. The real problem with the coin is that it is plainly overgraded and the toning isn’t...
So what, I just scrolled through the Heritage archives and saw plenty that sold for $50 or more. Furthermore, I didn’t see any in the $10-$15...
