I'm not sure how well I can discern wear and/or bag marks from this photo, but if I paid AU58 money sight-unseen and received a coin with that...
Looks like he's still got an 1895-S and 1895-O (or is that "1895-0"?) listed raw. All "estate finds" -- wonder if these are more treasures from...
They're asking $220. Numismedia puts this variety at $168 in G4, $300 in VG8. $780 in no-problem XF. I'm thinking that this particular example...
