I was wondering about that. Thanks for the reply.

I agree. My first thought was that it had an "odd" look to it. I'd pass.
I think that it is a bad image, but it does look lifeless. But what a great issue the 1876 20C is! I would buy it at the right price, but it would be around VF money, assuming this piece has problems.

Edited to add...the coin would grade as a 55 or 58, based on the images and depending on what it looks like in hand.

<< <i>I do not want a cleaned one that is going to BB. I did not care for the toning on the front anyways. The price tag on it is $600. I will just keep looking. Thanks for the help. >>
As a collector, you need to be happy with your coins, so wise decision. However, from a dealer standpoint, that is not a bad price for a 76 20C. That is about what problem-free circs are going for. The price on this issue can only go up and up, regardless of technical grade.
