    Agreed. Just a nice business strike.

    Mac and Andy are correct, a specimen strike comes with completely different caracteristics.The black and white almost effect is what sets them apart from regular strikes, and somehow even experts are fooled some times.I'm guessing that some dies from specimen strikes were also used for business, hence the big number of so many hybrids.


    Nevertheless, a nice coin and date, congrats bidask.
