Purchased from member SaorAlba (Dave) on the BS&T. What a terrific member to do business with. When he couldn't make it to the PO over the weekend and Monday was a holiday, he sent it out Tuesday...OVERNIGHT! Unbelievable. This guy takes trust and integrity to a whole new level!

At any rate, I'm terrible at grading these.

Cheers

Bob

    Nice. If there's no luster breaks in the field it might go MS 61 or 62. Hard to tell on the reverse from that picture.

    I'm having more trouble judging the obverse. It looks nice and there doesn't appear to be any rub. MS 62 sounds right.

    Commercial Unc.? I first heard the term from the late Tom Paine; and definitely agree overnight express is a good option, never had one of those get lost.

    Thanks, Rick. With regard to the marks, I'll have to look when I get home. I didn't notice anything unusual.

    Cheers

    Obverse looks mint state. The "shadowed" reverse makes that side harder to assess. Luster looks weakish and two-toned in the rev fields.

    Looks 61. I saw when that was on the bs&t. You got it for a great price.

    OK Bob.... got them.... I would say 61/62..... the large pictures may make some marks worse than in hand though... A nice piece of gold... and a great price. Cheers, RickO
