What Doug said....pics please.
Do you have full pictures of both sides of the coin? I'd like to see the whole coin.
Yep! If Mike says it's doubled, I'm sure he'll want to see it in hand and take pictures. It would be worth pretty substantial money if authenticated.

I certainly do not grade that way Doug. Hits are my number one criteria, end of story. I start at 70 and countdown the grade based on the number...
HAHAHAHAHA....nothing like an ultra modern to screw up everone. People are likely going to be surprized by this grade. Like I've said many times...
Come on Doug, you know the TPG's grade on luster and ignore hits like that at the gem levels. If the coin is blazing with cartwheel luster, they...
What would you like me to use on it? Name your poison(s) and I'll soak it. I seriously doubt they were "made" because I've acquired so many of...
