Finally picked up a 1776-Mo 8R in PCGS AU58

I have been looking for a nice 1776-Mo 8R example for a few years now...and generally have not liked the ones I have seen (except for a few amazing ones people around here have in their sets)...so was overjoyed when @TwoKopeiki gave me the heads up that John over at CRO had a nice one for sale. Needless to say, worked out a deal and I could not be happier:

    That's awesome @Senator32. You have some very very nice looking coins!

    You have more patience than me lol. I'll often buy a coin even if it doesn't have the best eye appeal because I know there is some merit to the technical grade and sometimes the coins I buy just don't have certain dates with an over the top appearance. I'm certainly not against filling a spot in my collection and trading up when something nicer comes along.
