<p>[QUOTE="tpsadler, post: 534117, member: 9860"]FreakyGarrettC, </p><p>The question here is "Do you like this coin." Wholesale bid on a MS-65 is $50. My sheet does not show MS-66 so my thought is, it would be higher. PCGS is one of the better graders and if they have it at MS-66 even though I think there are some issues with what appears to be scratches on the reverse. (These may just be on the slab) They have had this coin in hand. The toning looks to be me toning in process meaning it will tone more from the areas already shown. $60 retail for this coin in a MS-66 or MS-65 grade is very reasonable.</p><p> </p><p>Personally I like the looks of this coin. Your primary goal should be, does this fit the eye appeal expectation's for your collection. This should be the main question for any purchase. Cost although an important factor should be a secondary issue(IMHO). So ask Garrette when you give it him, he may find it very attractive. If not take him with you to pick the next one out. If the dealer is a good one he should credit this coin toward another purchase.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
