It seems odd to have the toned obv with an untoned ring around it,almost like a pad with some chemical was placed on it,and that even yellow tone...
I'm going to say 45 for the heck of it, my usual disclaimer that luster is very hard to judge on static photos. Great looking coin!

I use an SDB since my collection is worth greater than 10k. I would need one anyway for important papers, just got a bigger one to hold the...
that is an amazing original piece, probably for a mother memorializing her child. At that time infant death from infections was extremely high. I...
