Just received a beautiful 1905 IHC that cost me $20.00

A little bit of color, a little bit of luster and not too many surface marks.

I'm guessing ms64 RB, but I'm not too good at these.

    It has some cool nice deep color. Not sure if it is NT or AT though.

    Nice coin! I think it would be graded BN vice RB, but I would agree with 64.

    By the look of the obverse it almost looks like it was mildly cleaned or dipped and then it retoned naturally. Nice coin for the price.

    Not sure it's completely original, and I suspect it would be designated BN instead of RB, but it's still a nice pick for a couple of sawbucks.

    A reasoble purchase at $20.00, IMHO.

    I just bought a 1905 IHC for $20 from my local B&M yesterday. The only problem is the green. Full LIBERTY and Diamonds.

    Probably cleaned and retoned.
