As much as I&#039;d like to have a set, or even a premium example, that wasn&#039;t my goal. I don&#039;t have one, and wanted one that met some criteria. A) Authentic B) Not counterstamped C) not run over by a train D) not obviously or harshly cleaned (although most(?) coins of this vintage were probably cleaned at some point) D) affordable.</p><p><br /></p><p>I would love to have an AU58 example, but this coin was &lt;$100, and as it seems to have met all of my criteria at the moment, it was a perfect coin at the time.</p><p><br /></p><p>Yes, there are prettier</p><p>Yes, there are cleaner</p><p>Yes, there are many with a better grade</p><p>Yes, there are many other TD&#039;s I could have bought, but this one is going to keep me happy for quite some time.</p><p><br /></p><p>So there you have it. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
