[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 6623204, member: 10461"]Actually, I don't entirely disagree with you. I could concur with a VF30-35 opinion. I'm into it for just a smidgen over VF money anyway, per Numismedia trends (and well below XF40 price). As I said, "nice, though not exceptional". It was a decent enough circ in [I]my[/I] estimation, anyway. I wasn't really seeking it out- I just threw out a bid on it in the DLRC auction because I like this "crusty" look on CuNi cents. I sort of had it in mind to buy it to flip it later. But in the end I decided to keep it, at least until a better one comes along. I don't care for the Stack's pedigree label much. For one thing, they used red at the bottom. Ever since the old PCI slabs, I'm conditioned to thinking of red on a slab label as something you see with problem coins. This piece does have some minor imperfections, but not so much I'd call it a problem coin, by any means.[/QUOTE]
