[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 1628867, member: 26302"]I agree with Doug's points. I would call that a nice XF John, but with a few issues. I would say its worth VF money. What that money would be would be dependent on the size. If it were a 3 or 4, its not terribly high. If that coin is a 1 or 2, then I would say $100 or a touch more woul dbe the ballpark. It REALLY bothers me the TPG would slab a coin with verdigris. What are they wanting? People to leave it in the slab until the verdigris just rots the coin away? Good lord, you would think if those people want to entomb a coin, they would have the common decency to make sure it doesn't have active corrosion on its surfaces that will destory the coin if left unchecked. Kind of shows you again how little slabbers really care about the coins, preferring the paycheck. Btw John, it is a good eye though. That coin has a very fine style in my view, about as good as any LRB gets. Stylistically that coin is a home run. :)[/QUOTE]
