Some of you guys are getting way to excited and are going to cause an issue.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have owned one of these before and had it graded. DO NOT remove the coin from the packaging to get a picture of the reverse. You do not want to do this. There is a way to tell from the obverse if the coin is the pattern or not.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.smalldollars.com/dollar/page20c.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.smalldollars.com/dollar/page20c.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.smalldollars.com/dollar/page20c.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p>There is a small patch of die polish just off of the bust on the OBVERSE of all the known pattern specimens. Go to the website above and read where it says &quot;Obverse die marker&quot; This will tell you what to look for on the side of the coin you can see. If these marks are present it is the pattern and should be sent to PCGS. There is no need to do anything to the original packaging.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
