It has been awhile since Ive bought this many coins in a week but am feeling good about every purchase so far. Wish I could say i was feeling as good after my surgery recovery continues to lag a bit but what better time to buy coins when laid up on the couch for 3 months all doped up on narcotics?

    Looks like a nice Repunched mintmark to me.

    That it is, as well as another feature to the coin, though not in hand yet so I cant confirm. Might be tough to ascertain from pics, but the seller is a reputable one ATS.

    Sweet buff, I thought 67 when i saw it and the rev looks PL.

    MS66 taste on an MS63 budget.

    Looks like his head caused the seam on the reverse

    Nice find!

    That's what struck me as unique...I'd have bought because of grade, and appearance does looks PL. Awesome.

    Nice! It looks like a luster bomb. How does it look in hand (when you get it of course)?

    I believe you and the seller of this one are the 2 known makers of 2 of the other PL pieces. I think he may have actually made 2 in fact. He is describing this one as PL reverse and semi-ish on the obverse. I feel he has prven himself to be believable on the topic as have you. So that puts us at somewhere in the range of 66-75% PL in ratio. Would love to be able to afford your graded one but that is a moose of a coin that resides a level above where I can play.

    I have a lot of respect for Doug both knowledge and integrity wise. I'd trust his description too.

    It's worth every bit of the assigned grade..........even with a slightly lighter strike (which extends to the base of the S in CENTS) on Black Diamond's rear leg.

    Good combination on your fixes @ACop B) Love that Repunched

    Continue with your recovery no matter how slow it may feel <3

    The coin looks oddly PL...
    There are only 3(?) graded by NGC as PL.
    Any plans to cross?

    Not sure if seller tried or not. Might try for star at point if it is PL

    @ACop... That is one gorgeous Buff..... Hope you have a speedy recovery.... Cheers, RickO

    I am almost there thanks. Im dealing with the back end of a hip impingement. I resolved it already but I rushed myself back to the gym too early and it re-impinged and I have been unable to walk again for 3 weeks now until yesterday. I think 20 hours of stretching and pulling over the weekend finally helped.

    @ACop.... Didn't know you were recovering. No fun at all.

    Take it slow.

    What a gorgeous Buff my friend. The lol was your comment about being doped up and buying coins. What a life eh😂.
    I love your Buff. Looks as PL as you can be with the designation. Great score and I too thought 67 when I first looked at it.👍🏻👍🏻

    The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.
