    Nice pickups - good addition to the type set.

    It's probably just me, but personally, I'd keep coin no. 1 for a type set and sell the other 2. I like the consistent cameo effect driven by the darker peripheral toning on both sides of the coin.

    I think the first one grades much higher, as well.

    This is so advanced my brain hurts :D haha not sure what that means but I'm sure it's very educated on the matter but personally I'd keep the second one as it still has a nice luster and is generally clean.

    Thanks,

    Advanced huh? False flattery will get you nowhere. It's quite simple really . . . beauty truly is in the eye of the beholder.

    I just Googled the words I now know what it means I was unsure of the meaning of the words at first, and it was not false flattery just respect of the knowledgeable and educated response written by you.

    Thanks,

    Grades are in on 2 of these 3. They all came from the same seller. An old collection. First one got MS64, second one sold for $80 on eBay (I didn't like it for the cut on the neck), and the last one got MS64+ :). Maybe I should have submitted the middle one despite the cut. An MS63 would have been $150 coin.

    Geez, I wish I had your time to peruse eBay. And a little of your luck would not hurt either.

    But you do this (coins) for a living, right?
