    I picked this up from a local dealer. I finally moved away from Morgans and wheats (which I will always love).

    As I have not graded too many of these, I would like some grade opinions.

    Also, I'm thinking this coin may have been noticeably cleaned, but I am not too familiar with natural wear and age toning. Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.

    Thanks in advance!

    sf340flier?

    That wouldn't be short for SAAB 340 would it?

    Nice coin F-12 for sure

    sf340flier is indeed short for the old Saab-Fairchild SF340.

    In my previous life, I used to fly up and down the east coast based out of LGA and BOS. Now I teach (you know what they say, those that can't do teach;) )
