    Very nicely preserved coin…strong strike, agreed, looks unc with clean fields. The only detraction is weak steps/reverse. Definitely a keeper…good find.

    A suggestion I would add is try to identify pieces with overall like appearance that do not have a hit, such as on column 4 L to R. It is not easy to evaluate columns, because of the size of a cent, but it is very important. Some use a 5X power. I refer 10X on cents.

    I would have enjoyed a clear photo of the mintmark. Do you have one?

    A couple of clear dings on one of the columns on the reverse, and one just below it, bag marks also. It is a nice coin for it's age, seal it, keep it, and show it. Thanks for sharing.

    Thank you. I was just trying to show off an amazing talent courtesy of my rather stunning gorgeous blue eyes, and impress the non-blessed talentless brown eyed riff raff.

    A little coin hunting task to assist you in enjoying searching:

    Research diagnostics of the 74 D, and determine if it is type 1 or type 2.

    Searching is fun stuff.
