Bought on GC tonight. A little past my comfort zone, but...
Good strike and original skin, couldn't stop myself.

    Very nice pick up! I was hoping to snag a couple coins on GC myself tonight, but the bidding went a little crazy on most of the stuff I really wanted. Oh well, I did real well last week. :)

    Nice Merc pickup @Sandman70gt.

    Edit to add: Very tough coin with about 6000.

    Great original skin. Sometimes it’s good to ‘reach’.

    Always looking for original, better date VF20-VF35 Barber quarters and halves, and a quality beer.

    It is a bit of a reach.
    For those that dont know the mercs - the 26s is a conditional rarity in MS grades.

    Very nice 26-S. Partial bands....so you got a good strike without paying FB money. Great pick-up for your set!

    Tru-view looks better. I was not a fan of the spots on the cap and torch, but they are less obvious now.

    I was waiting for someone else before I chimed in erwindoc, I don't like the spots either.
