Not many coins I would hang a MONSTER label on. This newp, IMO, is the exception.

Stretched a bit for my third purchase of the year, but fits nicely in my Toned Modern Showcase.

    If that weren't in a slab, half the people would call it AT. And I would guess roughly half the time, so would PCGS.

    That streaked and directional toning is indicative of 1980's and 1990"s proof government packaging toning. I have not seen it replicated.

    I'm not a fan of SBAs but I do like that one. Very attractive. Nice pickup.

    I would still call it AT. It’s gorgeous, though and my doubts wouldn’t prevent me from trying to snag it. :smile:

    Easily worth a buck in my book!

    My current coin collecting interests are: (1) British coins 1838-1970 in XF-AU-UNC, (2) silver type coins in XF-AU with that classic medium gray coloration and exceptional eye appeal.

    I'm not sure how many SBAs deserve the "monster" designation, but that coin would give them a run for their money.

    Gorgeous coin, and perhaps an even better TrueView.

    Thanks for sharing...Mike

    I'm not suggesting AT. I'm suggesting that other people would suggest it. I personally think the distinction between AT and NT is nearly impossible to ascertain.

    The toning does help distract from the portrait ...

    @Ricko we knew you'd like it!

    Kind regards,
