[QUOTE="Leadfoot, post: 1085498, member: 2972"]Love the value of the "full except for the head" strike, Lehigh, and the coin's a looker too. That said, and IMHO, the color is good but not great (a bit streaky/grainy), and the series doesn't typically have the strongest toning premiums to begin with. Now, to price the coin.
