Most of the "weak strike" is my pictures. Most of the hairs on the beard are there. It is not as strong a strike as my AU-53, but I definitely...
Although I have a couple marginal coins, the only ones I am missing (i.e. not unc) are the S-VDB, 14-D and the 24-D & S.
I did not notice the "L" before. It is more than just low. There is no base on it. I assume that it was grease filled. On the original, I can...

Did you notice that all of the high priced ones were ANACS new holders? Not sure I understand that. BTW, that 1913-S AU-55 closed at $206.
I now know exactly what grade this coin is. It is VF, XF, AU or MS, original or cleaned and somewhere between a strong strike and a weak strike....
Nice one. I would be tempted to call it AU were it not for the nicks. Hopefully, I will have my own 24-D to post soon. If you think a 14-S XF...

Whether the coin was real or fake, eBay pulled it.
