I've owned it since 9/13. Not sure if it's turned in the holder, or I was blind folded when I bought it or I lost a bet w/John McIntosh.

I don't drink, so that's not it.

What do you think?

    How did you buy it? If ebay/online then I bet maybe you thought it was going to have nice toning and took a chance? Price was right?

    If in person? You must have been in a good mood or you really wanted to own a MS60? The price was right?

    I don't think it's a bad coin. The reverse is much nicer than the obverse.

    The price was ok. Looking at the tag on the back of the holder, it's an eBay coin. But I didn't think my taste was that bad. It's been in a sdb till now. My gut feeling is that it has turned ugly since I've had it.

    Probably dipped.....color is consistent with coins toning that way in the white ANACS holders.
    It's not my glass of beer, but I've seen much uglier coins in 2 and 3 holders.
