Since there was a thread ATS about the value of toning on a coin I just wanted to point out that not every Battle Creek coin was a through the roof wallet buster. Here's one I got out of the second auction for $489. Needless to say, I was VERY happy to get it for that price. It is a MS66*, and is very clean for the grade. What may look like nicks etc. are actually toning breaks. The only nick is a small one about 4 o'clock to Liberty's mouth. The images are by Bob Campbell, and I think he did an excellent job.
