Owner's Comments

This coin is a delightful addition, but lower graded than hoped. I had it for years in my collection, and then decided to have PCGS look at it. I was hoping for a 64, and was quite dissapointed that it came back a 53. I did not see the wear on the left wheat ear. I had compared it to a PCGS MS 63 BR at Northeast Collections, and it looked even better in the hair. P/V on 1/18/16 is 0.
