    Hi all I purchased this coin a couple of months ago, I'm having second thoughts about it, the toning isnt my favorite I mostly purchased it as it was a good deal/ investment. Do you think its worth keeping or upgrading?

    I would keep it, the old NGC slab has always been my personal favorite. Sweet coin for me.

    From the images it looks original, but it also looks to have negative eye appeal, in my opinion.

    Yes the toning isn't appealing to me either. I'm looking to just recoup what I have into it I guess. Not sure if it will upgrade

    If you don't like it now you won't like it later. Sell it or trade it for one you do like. And keep in mind - forget about profit and buy coins you like. Then stuff like this doesn't happen.

    I really like stuff in old holders. They just have a cool look to me. At the same time I won't buy it if the coin is not something I'll be happy with, long term.

    If I owned the OP coin, I would probably sell it and find something with a better look.
    It would probably bring $150 to $200 at auction. It could bring more if the right person came along that just wanted the holder. You never know.

    NGC 4 slab, with a pristine hologram! Don't let anything happen to the hologram, those things are getting hard to find where the hologram hasn't been destroyed by someone putting a sticker on it and then it ripping the hologram off when they try to remove it.
