<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Tamaracian, post: 2050011, member: 23122&quot;]Your coin is well-struck (as are many pre-1920 issues) and has great color, but it is not a matte proof.&nbsp; There are subtle differences in the aforementioned PCGS PF 64 BN COINfacts Image vs your coin, but the most obvious feature is the Reverse Rim between the K4 and K8 positions; your coins&#039; Rim is not square in that region.&nbsp; Also note that in the reference coin the transistion from the fields to the Rim shows little gradient (curvature), whereas your coin has more curvature to it.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Also, in the Matte Proof the Working Dies were sandblasted, resulting in a very uniform, flat, slightly grainy appearance like 400 grit sandpaper; and the Edge of the coin had a high Mirror finish due to the Planchet preparation.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I hope this helps.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
