Latest purchase now in hand: 1876 $20 - opinions welcomed.

I had picked up this 1876 Doble Eagle from TT (when they were offering $100 off). From their pics (a lottery, I know), it looked like a nice NGC MS61. Here are their pics.

Well I now have it & it is as nice as I had dared hope. The following are rough, 1st attempts at photographing it (as my camera was dying), but I hope they give some sense of the coin - if not full justice.

Any observations, judgements, criticisms?

    I love seeing the before and after pics from TT.

    Nice pickup. I failed to use any of the 3 coupons this month. I think it's the first month I did not buy anything from them in a long time too.

    Breast,
    Great coin. The fields look nice for a 61 and without any major hits. Without the few marks on the cheek, the coin would easily be a 62.

    Nice coin and a Centennial year to boot. Did you get it for a good price?

    Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.
