picked this one up but don't really need it. I think it might be a bit nicer than advertised.
It has been cleaned at some point but is retoning nicely. I didn't even see the marks on the reverse until I saw my pics.

    Very little wear, just scritchy scratchy on the rev.

    I don't think the seller's website noted anything about scratches.
    I picked it up pretty cheap and I think it's pretty nice looking still but I don't do problem stuff.

    If anyone wants it for what I paid, just pm me. I think I may return it.

    Without the scratches, it's AU50.

    Darn you Goose3. Now I start looking at these things at coin shops. They have a certain draw to them and I know I am going to plunk down a chunk of change for a couple soon.

    BTW, what's a reasonable price for these things?

    I saw some in XF/AU the other day and they were $75, didn't know if that was good or a rip off.

    I would say EF45 at least, with hairlines noted. Neat piece.

    There is an interesting article on this die #257 in the CWT Society's Copperhead Courier Summer issue 1981 volume 15 #2 page 16 if you are interested.
