Contest For PCGS MS Coin

OK, So I have not done a contest before but I feel like doing something for this forum since I get so much from it-

The contest is going to be pretty simple -

Guess the coin ,variety/subtype & the grade it is.(FSB,FBL,RD,RB,BN,T1,T2,FH,DCAM,CAM,CROSSLET,O-???,Browning...,Judd-..,FS,Sheldon,.ect) & you win it.
Heck,It may not even have a variety or subtype.

Easy enough right ?

The coin has just been certified by PCGS - 4/1/08

More than (2) that were certified by PCGS have sold for over $200 on Ebay in the past 3 weeks-

The contest will close in 2 weeks (4/19/08) or if someone guesses correctly before that time ,the contest will be over-

So what is YOUR guess ?

If no one guesses 100% correctly- the person I deem closest to the actual coin in question will get a raw version of the same coin from the same collection that the coin in question came from. (It will still have a retail value of about $20-$50 depending on what it would truly grade as ,or from past experiance of what raw versions I have had sold for).
Plus an additional bonus:kewl:

Thanks to all who play & Thanks to this forum -

So give a guess or 2 or 3 -
(3) is the limit Im putting on the contest-

BE SPECIFIC & GOOD LUCK !!
