    Can silver hit $30+ again so all these dregs can hit the melt bucket.

    Come on people! The coin was obviously taken from an American settler by a Comanche Indian that carved this war paint symbol in the coin, after he killed the settler. 😂 🤣

    I too thought that I was going to view a high grade example of the real deal, disappointed.

    The PCGS coin above is nice!
    It's the most desirable H10 die state too.

    When in doubt, don't.

    Well this isn’t the highest grade, but it’s the best I could do

    Oh my gosh that is a sweet one. It appears under graded too. Thanks for the eye candy!
    BTW how come nobody ever discusses 6 o'clock on the rim, its all jacked up.

    I cherrypicked and sold this one in September. It made MS61 at ANACS. Quite a bit different than the one in the OP lol.

    2500, in a private sale, to a good friend of mine who is assembling an MS set of the different stages. Probably a bit cheap, but keep in mind, while still a VAM-1B, it's Harrison stage 8, so the crack stops at Liberty's neck instead of continuing on through the neck and hair seen in H9 and H10.

    Thank you for telling, yes I understand u completely since it is completely different die state ie the complete crack, thus it is worth far less than the LDS (latest die state).
    Thank you
