Still haven't captured the whole coin yet. Working hard, and getting closer. The toning is more uniform around the rim. Just need more light, I think.

Very cool, thx for sharing. The usual unc die characteristics are there - strong obverse die polish running NW/SE, stars on right weak, and die wear in the center at the shield. Awesome toning to boot.

For some reason, I've seen two or three gems lately with virtually the same die "signature", although earlier die states. Not the finest moment for the Philadelphia mint!
