<p>[QUOTE="Barney McRae, post: 25937264, member: 150594"]Pickin I've got coin in hand. I still can't take a decent photo. But I have two coins side by side. A blast white 1879 S, PCGS MS66 next to it. I see little difference in the details/flaws between them. That little bit of lamination missing is barely visible to the naked eye. It is not a distraction at all. The 79 S has a tiny one as well in nearly the same position. The 79S is blast white while this one (1886) has some rim toning, but it cartwheels just as nicely. Some people actually prefer this kind of toning to generic blast white. The seller's photo does not capture the luster, nor can I. Mine are so bad I'm not going to even bother posting them. I'm going to send it off to be graded and attributed at ANACS at some point regardless. NTC grades it 67. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie7" alt=":p" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie9" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie7" alt=":p" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> If it comes back without attribution, I will send the slab to VSS.

It's got a doubled inner ear, forgot to take a photo of it. But here is the date magnified closely. There is doubling on each numeral at the bottom of every digit. There is also the pickup point of the hook in the lower portion of the 6. The hook kind of seals the deal, at least that is my thought. Take a peek at VAM World for this coin. I saved you all the hard work. I spent a couple of hours looking.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
