[QUOTE="900fine, post: 916355, member: 6036"]OK, enough suspense... It's [B]N-10 PCGS MS-64[/B]. My spin... I agree with MS-64. I can't go higher due to the incomplete strike in the stars, though I can see why some forgive that and call it 65. The coin has wonderful luster and color, with just a few peeks of mint red still shining through in the most protected areas. Very strong surfaces with almost no nicks; a full strike would put this one 65 or better. Early to middle die state with some die crumbling in the dentils on both sides. [B]Condition Census #12[/B] according to Noyes. Hats off to Dan Holmes for being a wonderful numismatist and all-around good guy. We will never see a collection like this again. And a salute to you copperheads for your expertise and input ! Thanks for playing ![/QUOTE]
