    Decent surfaces, nice date, easy green bean, but I don't think it is undergraded, so no gold.

    I called it 40-45 before seeing the grade so green but might give you gold

    I'm not feeling the eye appeal on this one. I actually think it might be overgraded, for my taste. No bean.

    No bean at a grade of XF-40. Too many problem areas, some due to weak striking and some due to uneven wear.

    I think it looks fine as a B coin for the grade, so green sticker.

    A really interesting coin, but I think with the areas of uneven strike it won't bean.

    Actually, this coin generates a question on my part. All others got either a "Passed" or "Not CAC" designation on the results report.

    Of the 15 coins, 4 "Passed", 10 were "Not CAC", but this one was reported as "N/A", which I don't understand.

    Does anyone out there know what the "N/A" means?

    CAC doesn’t certify “errors”. That likely disqualified this coin from consideration.
