    That was another one that didn't last long on my site. The images are terrific and it is a wonderful coin.

    That is one nice copper coin to be almost 200 years old.

    I know that as hoard coins, they are fairly common, but they certainly can come really nice like this one! image

    Thank you for posting. I love verdigris-free, mellowed copper. Simply beautiful.

    The coin looks to me to exceed MS65. What's holding it back?

    I am always interested in understanding why a coin is not the next higher grade,
    here, perhaps luster is the reason???

    I hope I am not stepping on anyone's toes here, but I had this coin listed in my advance notice email sent out to clients after the last Baltimore show and sold the coin to bestclser1. I was able to inspect it at length in-hand before the sale. My opinion is that this coin is graded correctly, though high end for the grade, and that at least part of the reason many folks might think it undergraded is because so many other coins are graded incorrectly.
