  Lovely coin bidask. I think it's properly graded as is -- I think the grade is probably strike limited, as the eagle's legs seem to be weakly struck up as is the area where the snake crosses the eagle's breast. Really great toning on this one! Congrats!

  The EA on this one is totally fantastic, and your point brg re the grade is right on target.

  Beautiful coin. I agree with Brandon - grade is most likely strike limited. These are a pain to find fully struck-up on eagle's leg (Just like the 1921 Dos Pesos)

  Terrific eye appeal- Certainly a GEM by any measure. I was waiting to comment as I had a 1921 Peso at PCGS waiting to be graded- well the results basically confirmed my thoughts as it graded 65. The coin I submitted is a frosty white coin that is fairly well struck. It has decent eye appeal for those that like that frosty look. There is a spectrum within the 65 grade level and all 65's are just not created equal. Select the coin that appeals to you
