  That's an absolutely gorgeous original example... thanks for sharing!
  
  And a great piece of American history. I would love to see this coin in person and share stories with those who may have touched it over the years!
  
  Do you know when it was originally slabbed?

  Not sure when it was slabbed. Looks to me like its a fresh coin slabbed a year or so ago and just passed through CAC. I found it through Harry Laibstain's website and received it for review this Friday.

  Sweet coin! I might have to give it a bump to EF-45, just for the look.

  Rarely do circulated coins get the "Sham-Wow" seal of approval, but that sure does!

  Nice example of a tough coin. My example is the same grade, but no sticker!

  FatMan introduced me to a friend at the FUN show who works in the museum. I hope to make it there soon, perhaps this summer.
