MAX 64, due to the face hits

 

MS 63...the hits on the face are slightly distracting, but it is still a nice coin.
This one is on my want list as well...I recently was an underbidder on one of these in a doily PCGS holder.

 

The hits are over exaggerated in the photo especially on the reverse....fwiw

 

64

 

Never honestly tried one of these before. Reminds me of the 1937-1938 Australian Crowns - the King seems a magnet for micrometeor impacts. With that focus on the face in mind, I have this one at 63.

 

64 camp for me too . No crow please .... Lol ....

 

63 camp

 

Grade is....... where ya @ Mr @green18 ????

 

Was he the owner of WKRP in Cincinnati ?

 

I suppose it's possible that Mr. Foster had suffered from severe acne as a child and was accurately depicted on the coin.

 

Lovely piece. My Cincinnati's are raw......

 

N

Well that's the good thing about radio no one can see ya!

 

I have always wanted a Cinn. Comm. Maybe Someday

I graduated the Univ. of Cinn. in 1971

 

Was at 63

 

I do like the art deco reverse

 

Agreed. Makes the coin more like a commemorative medal than an official issue. I could see myself owning one of these.

 

It might sound self-serving but I thought 64 and THEN saw the grade. Those are pretty easy to grade.

 

Wow. They're also pricey.
