Looks high-end or the light is obscuring high mark wear and bag marks. I said MS-65 but thought it looked very good... MS-65+ or MS-66 wouldn't...
Only about 10% away right now...if the Fed starts hiking, that could depress gold quite a bit. I've been watching the MS-65 generic commons like...
Paul, I can't speak for the doily per se and not the specific coin you reference, but at coin shows I've attended the OGH's seem to command a...
