Not so sure they'll be doing that anytime soon...they would have to pay AH for the rights; or didn't you notice the nice "TM" after the FEB?

Do not fall into the error of the artisan who boasts of twenty years experience in his craft while in fact he has had only one year of experience... twenty times.
The coin looks decent, but I would rather buy raw then buy from an acg slab... there is probably a higher percentage of good raw coins. I'm smiling but it's true.
if i'm not mistaken, the reference to FEB is intended to mean "Full Eagles Breast" which might not change anyone's opinion, mine included, regarding ACG, but the breast feathers are a little better strike indicator than the beak!!
Keets, you're absolutely right, since the breast feathers are in the middle of the coin and are a focal area for grading. When considering strike, it's important to note what's on the opposite side of the coin, in terms of the design. In this case, the breast feathers are opposite Washington's neck. Even more important is the legs, since they're opposite Washington's ear area, the highest part of the obverse design. Now...all this talk of bird breasts and legs has got me hungry for KFC. Think I'll run out and get some original recipe!
