[QUOTE="Leadfoot, post: 1614649, member: 2972"]Do yourself a favor and stay far away from that coin. Blue IHCs, whether truly a product of MS-70 or naturally toned, have a bad rap in the marketplace. Some would say it is deserved (to include myself), others would say collectors are confused and this toning is caused by mint-issued tissue paper. Either way, I would strongly recommend you stay away from any monochromatic blue/purple copper like the one pictured in this thread. The fact that the coin is in NGC 66 BN holder also doesn't help the coin. This is a problematic grade, IMO, for a number of reasons, and even if the coin was all there (it is not, IMO) they tend to be valued more like a 65 than a 66 in the marketplace.[/QUOTE]
