    Nice DDR! ;)
    I'll go with 30. This is particularly nice since it is early die state before the EPU got all clashed out.

    That is right and I forgot to mention it was a DDR. There is a third die state, the one without the die crack so I guess you would refer to them as early, mid, and late die states, this one being the mid die state. The die crack at the bison’s tail is a
    great pick up point. The early die state is the one without the die crack and seems to be the toughest one to locate.

    30 . .and I like the clean, hammered look for a 30 as well. No distractions . . . no fluff . . .just a stand-up good coin.

    I agree with 30 and a nice example at that grade.... Cheers, RickO
