    Exaclty right on the LM-8, Very close on the grade (at least what ANACS graded it).

    What'd ANACS say?

    They call it a 35, This one I "made". Bought raw as a fine for $60.00 a couple of years ago. I liked the toning and had it slabbed more to protect the surfaces. With everything else going up in price, this one seems to be flat-lining. Oh well, I still like it.

    I don't know that I agree with their grade... too much flatness on the face, and too much wear on the eagle's wings... it really is a borderline technical 25/30 to me, but the toning gives a bump to the eye appeal, making it a 30 to me... still... $60 is an AWESOME price for that coin!!
