    The thing that happened under the LLAR is it looks like the rim of another coin made contact there. The surfaces are semi-PL and show even the lightest of contact marks. Consequently the marks look much worse than they are when viewing in hand. This coin is definitely a tail of two sides. The reverse I can live with. Typically these are found with beat up obverses with cheeks that look like there were in a knife fight, paired with reverses that are immaculate. I'll take this role reversal and pay 64 money for this obverse. :) Liberty on the obverse is as clean as any 67 you'll find all day long.

    physics-fan3.14 You got any more of them.... prooflikes?

    Absolutely beautiful luster quality on this coin! Obverse is a 65+, but the wounded eagle lowers the grade. I'm not convinced it should lower it all the way to 64, though.
