Owner's Comments

On the 7th of February 2025 and using my ELIKLIV microscope and Vantage 10X loupe , I examined this coin and describe it thusly. The Obverse shows no scratches, marks, or dings. I see no toning, spotting, or cloudiness. The Reverse shows no scratches, marks, or dings. I see no toning, spotting, or cloudiness. The only issue found here is the plastic holder has enough light scratching to be noticeable when viewing with magnification. The coin is definitely a DCAM but is on the lighter side of that description. This coin is held in a PCGS Tri-View Generation 6.1 holder used from October 2020 to the present.
