OK, I will try again - here is a GTG on this coin (the cheek and neck "action" does not really appear as readily in-hand, and the bloom or whatever it is toward lettering below E and G is NOT on coin). I'm trying to hang in there but am oriented to Great Britain and there are precious few to no posts or interest. Post another if you like:

    Can’t grade them, but I love the rosy toning in the crest.

    To write big should reflect what I think which means I need to see this one in hand first. Looks like one terrific coin... Could be a proof or specimen coin...or one of the early business strikes from dies that may have been prepared for a proof or specimen. The high cheek marks lead me to believe the second scenario is more probable.

    Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.

    Add cameo. Very nice in hand, and the highest graded of my 1/2 crowns...Has to be seen in hand as per CK.
