I needed this one and had my eye out for one like this for a while. When it came up on ebay, I snagged it! (Sorry Myqqy!)

    Looks like a very solid coin for the grade. Well done!
    When in doubt, don't.

    Thanks Dennis. I think the pics are a little "washed out" and I hope the coin has better contrast for a PL with some color around the edges/rims.

    Doesn't look like a "slam-dunk" PL from the photos... Hopefully the coin looks better than the pics.

    That slab looks like an old ANA (not ANACS) slab.

    I bet the coin is a lot prettier in your hand than it is in the picture.

    Excellent.

    thechickenman: I know what you mean. Luckily ANA/ANACS was strict with its PL designation (and still is IMHO).

    I thought that one had a lot of potential- nice pickup!

    Anablep: Does your coin perhaps look a bit more like this courtesy photo post, than in the original auction photos??

    Very pretty coin, by the way -- Nice Pickup!! image

    Stuart: looks like you played with the contrast a bit. We'll see how it matches up when the coin arrives. Still can't see any PL surfaces though.
