<p>[QUOTE=&quot;physics-fan3.14, post: 794011, member: 19165&quot;]The seller actually did a pretty good job with pictures of this beautiful coin. It arrived in the mail this afternoon, and I love it. The obverse is not as strongly mirrored, but the reverse looks every bit of a Cameo Proof. The strike is also quite strong - what SBA collectors call &quot;Full Talons&quot; (incidentally, Full Talons are rather difficult on the 80D, but not as bad as the 80S). I have no doubts whatsoever that this coin would cross to an NGC PL holder, will probably get the * for the cameo reverse, and I would probably grade it 65. TPG&#039;s are very hard on prooflike coins though, so it might only be a 64. Whatever the grade, this is a unique, one of a kind, very special coin - even if it is an SBA. </p><p><br /></p><p>Quick note to bhp3rd - PCGS will only designate PL on Morgans. NGC will designate on all series. Looking at the NGC Census, there are no SBA&#039;s graded PL from 1979 to 1981 (and only 10 from 1999). Semi-pl SBA&#039;s might be semi-common - but one with deep mirrors and a fully cameo&#039;d reverse is anything but common. </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/kk68/physicsfan/JPA850obverse.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/kk68/physicsfan/JPA850reverse.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
