    I don't think it is a proof and if it were it would really be a rare find. I wish the images were a bit larger it would be nice to see if any of the original red can be seen in the hair and in the harp. The image makes the coin look as if there is some flat spots on the higher points. Here is a image of a UNC specimen of the same coin.

    It will be interesting to see what this will fetch in the end. I hope it doesn't exceed my coin budget for the monthimage This seller has some other awesome coin for sale like this 1822 British farthingimage

    Micheál are you lugh60? If so may I suggest not bidding anymore until the end. You and your buddy tree-frog999 seem to be in a bidding war and are only going to drive the price up on yourselves. May I suggest a good 7 to 5 last second snipe. image

    Maybe MSD is trying to catch the enemy off-guard and make him think he's won the war already. Then, bang--a last second snipe!!

    Although I would have followed Cosmic's advice about the surprise snipe.

    I am like a certain species of sea snake. Yes, come and nibble at me little by little, become over confident that you have defeated me. Then when you have filled yourself with false valor I STRIKE!image

    Yeah, more like I jumped the gun. Any other time I would have just waited until a few seconds before the end. I placed my max bid and will stick to thatimage

    I have one that is coming back from ANACS shortly and this one is far more attractive. I think it will do well.
