I was watching this coin on eBay for several months and when the seller finally put it on sale for 20% off, I decided to buy it. It's an upgrade from a 64BN.
1852 British Quarter-Farthing, PCGS MS65BN.
I just love these diminuitive pieces. A problem though is that due to their tiny size, any hits or flaws look absolutely GINORMOUS compared to the features of the coin and get magnified when you display obverse and reverse pictures at a standard size.
Quick and dirty pics; the white smudges on the obverse are on the slab... no time today to buff them out.

What doesn't help is that the coin was wedged into the slab at an angle rather than parallel with the faces (unfortunately quite common on smaller coins).
