<p>[QUOTE="NotSure, post: 866933, member: 20034"]This coins obverse is a deep purple, as deep as purple can be, covering 100% of the obverse, while the reverse is just 100% blasty white. I sent it to PCGS for crossover, somewhat concerned as the crackdown on AT had begun. It crossed at PCGS, and I was pretty happy to see it in PCGS plastic. But, now I find myself thinking it would look GREAT in a new NGC pronged slab. The prints are on the old NGC slab...the coin is totally void of distracting marks and is close to a 65.</p><p> </p><p><img src="http://i797.photobucket.com/albums/yy251/NotSure1/DSC00809a-Copy-Copy.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p> </p><p>Obviously, the color is tweaked in the photo of it in it's PCGS holder (not to mention a tad out of focus....
