Well, technically purchased on Dec. 27, but it arrived today, first mail day of 2009. 
Tough to photo because it's dark and tiny; my pics don't do it justice. The seller's pics
were essentially dots. Figured I'd submit an offer and see if it took... surprisingly it did.
The reverse has somewhat of a PL look to it, although you cannot see from the pics.
The obverse shows prominant doubling (strike doubling I assume) as well as a large die
break above the date. No way to capture those with my camera, so I broke out the
DinoLite just for giggles. Actually, those pics look nicer than the ones I took with my
camera, once I did an Auto-Color on the images in Photoshop; right out of the microscope
they looked washed out.
A 1-point upgrade, but I'll also keep the 63, as it has vibrant toning.
