<p>[QUOTE="WingedLiberty, post: 1272817, member: 26030"]I recently got this TrueView photograph back from PCGS. This coin I actually bought when I was around 13 years old, way back in 1970. (So the coin isn't new, but the photo is). There were no "graded" coins back then, so like all coins of that era, it was raw. I think I paid around $20 or $25 for it (although it might have been less?). PCGS assigned an MS65 grade to it last month (so I didn't know its official grade for 41 years!).</p><p><br /></p><p> I bought it because I thought it was about the most beautiful thing I could find in the Redbook that I could afford. I also thought it was cool that the mintage was so low (around 6,600 I think). It still has really nice luster. I have never dipped or messed with it. The design is still beautiful (IMHO). </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]139630.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
