    I recently picked this up and it's my first piece. Seems to have had a rough planchet but so loved the detail. Anyone have any thoughts or opinions? Also if anyone can confirm my attribution or help with a correct one I'd be very grateful! I believe it to be a Ryder 2-B but I'm not sure. I also can't figure out what the rarity might be of this for marriage.

    Nice detail. A little bit of roughness, more obverse. Whats the grade? PCGS!?

    I forgot to mention, it's in a PCGS VF-25 holder!

    I agree with the Ryder 2-B. The only other obverse would be the 4, but your rev wouldn't match the G, but looks like the B to me.

    I don't know about these, but sure liked the interesting eagle side.
